In order to Create... you need wands.  I use the HTC Vive in class.  The
kids love it.  My favorite programs are tiltbrush and blocks.  We create
.obj or .stl files in tinkercad an upload them for closer inspection in
tiltbrush.  If they look good in 3-d space, then we print.  Blocks still
feels like a beta product but the idea of making it in vr and then printing
it is appealing.  I'm still waiting for good haptic gloves, no luck yet.
Ready Player 1 is on its way!
