4 weeks, 30+ hours of trouble shooting, 1 new 3D printer & countless errors later the sets of horse teeth are almost ready for class.
Students will draw, measure, and determine how they have changed in the Cenozoic.
Thanks @phaneritic for making this happen!

The students love it and fossils are such a great way to blend geoscience and biology!
