01 / What is Akse?
Akse means axis — as in X, Y and Z. That's the whole idea: a tool where kids and teens learn to think in three dimensions, without drowning in advanced menus. You build models by placing and shaping primitive shapes — or by drawing your own outline — and everything is measured in real millimetres, so what you see on screen is what you hold in your hand after printing.
Akse is made by Skaperiet, a maker space for kids and teens, and is used in courses and workshops where the path from idea to finished 3D print should be as short as possible. Everything runs right in the browser — nothing to install.
For kids and teens
Simple tools, clear words and big buttons. Designed for curious hands — on both computer and tablet.
Real millimetres
All measurements are in mm. What the kids draw matches what comes out of the 3D printer.
Ready to print
One click exports the whole project as an STL file — the format every 3D printer understands.
