About the Author

Marcus Ritland is a designer and 3D printing consultant at his small business, Denali 3D Design. Since 2008, he has used SketchUp for architectural rendering services, learning it and helping others well enough to be chosen as 'Top SketchUcator' of the SketchUcation forums. After learning about 3D printing through an online contest, he incorporated it into his business, selling 3Dprinted goods online and helping other small business owners leverage the technology.

He has also volunteered at a local makerspace, teaching SketchUp classes and leading 3Dprinting meetups. He is currently on a quest to eliminate designfor3Dprinting illiteracy. When he's not pushpulling a model into shape, he can be found shooting photos and enjoying nature.
