The World Maker Faire is an annual festival of engineers, artists, innovators, tinkerers, entrepreneurs, craftspeople, and techies. It’s like the love child of Burning Man and Comic-Con, where people come together to proudly showcase their inventions, learn from, and collaborate with each other. 

It’s happening in New York City Sept. 22 to 23, and in honor of the massive creative exhibition, Maker Media has curated a CAD & 3D printing e-book bundle, which can help you grow your understanding of personal fabrication technologies and provide you with a ton of creative inspiration. 

Grab it on sale at the Mashable Shop for $19.99.

If you can’t make it to the shindig this year, you can still learn how to become a maker through the e-books included in the pack. Across 12 modules, this learning collection will teach you all about 3D printing, 3D carving, and CNC routing. 

You’ll first get a comprehensive primer on 3D printing and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) routing and then dabble into a slew of projects including a 3D-printed LED lamp, smart SkyCam, stools, coffee tables, chairs, and more. There’s also an e-book solely dedicated to 3D carving, in which you’ll acquire hands-on training and create complex projects like custom block stamps, fidget spinners, and balsa wood gliders. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned craftsman. All the resources in the bundle are easy to understand, so everyone can follow along.

On any given day, the CAD & 3D Printing e-book bundle would set you back $185.88, but for a limited time, you can get it for $19.99 — a savings of 89%.
