Blender is a 3D computer graphics software tool set used to create 3D models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, augmented and virtual reality, and many other related things.
It is free and open-source software (FOSS), for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) keeps the current version of Blender installed on our Design Workstations 1-3.

Tips
- The PPM Design Workstation 2 runs Blender better than the other PPM workstations, because it has an NVIDIA (Quadro P620) GPU.
