I am looking for a job that will help me get experience. I am a junior in high school currently, taking the advanced physics class and advanced math class. Anyone know of possibilities that I could get?"


Answer
Unless you're willing to relocate, it would help to know your location to help you find a job near you.

Otherwise you might consider starting your own business. Doing so will show that you are a self starter and more motivated and creative than someone who seeks someone else to employ them. I would suggest since you are interested in robotics that you put together a 3D printer from a kit and then you can print parts to make more 3D printers which you could sell for profit.
You could recruit some of your peers to form a business venture similar to how Apple started, paying them in shares of the company rather than in cash.

You could also put together a mini CNC mill from parts from old printers and scanners.
You could use it to make intricate carvings in plaster of paris blanks, then have someone make ceramic greenware from the molds you make, fire them, and sell them. Develop a way to automate this process.

Working for someone else, you will make someone else very rich. Working for yourself, you will make yourself very rich.

Learning through trial and error is itself an important lesson, because it teaches you how to figure out something which no one can teach you. If you only ever learn from someone showing you how to do it, then you will hit a barrier which you won't pass until you figure out how to figure stuff out.
It's better to learn this learning how to learn lesson on something that is not so dangerous. I suggested 3D printers, ceramics, etc. because those are easy to work with and relatively inexpensive. It will not do to learn the hard way when it involves expensive materials that are much more difficult to work with.

Metal has a grain just as wood has a grain. You might never need to know that unless you will be milling some very precise metal parts.

Of course you might not make a profit your first 3 years or so, but you will definitely get plenty of experience, and you certainly can put your experience in you own business down as experience on your resume.

Other than the above, you might do a search for "robotics intern" as I found a listing of many opportunities here: http://www.simplyhired.com/a/jobs/list/q-robotics+intern

Statue maker?

i wanna know where could i buy a automatic head statue maker that can build statues with photos that it takes
i seen this device in public places before
but i wanna know more



Answer
not quite sure what you are talking about. If you are talking about a 3D laser scanner and a 3D printer then look either up. Or it's a CNC milling machine. Z-corp is a well known company for 3D printers.
Neither 3d laser scanner not 3D printer are yet household items. So the price is correspondingly. I'd be able to pay the rent for more than a year for what it could set you back.
If you are talking about something affordable for any average person, please post, I'd be interested as well.

How or where can I find a person or company with the ability to copy a sculpture with a CNC (or other) machine?

I am wanting to reproduce a classic sculpture that I have, in a larger size. I believe that I have seen machines on TV that can accurately measure and reproduce a sculpture without an artist having to actually chiesel it. I just cannot afford thousands to have it hand carved, and I am not very particular about fine quality so long as it is reasonable. Can anyone direct me please?


Answer
there are 3D scanners and various rapid prototyping machines, ranging from printers to CNC machines. Though large scale printers are much rarer than large scale CNC.

If you google rapid prototyping services you'll find some companies. But it's most likely going to be much more expensive than looking if you can locate a larger version of your sculpture, particularly if yours is a popular one. A large run reproduction will always be cheaper than an unique custom fabricated item.

What software (s) are the best for beginner cad/cam hobbyist? ? ?
