3D Printing

We have many 3D printers. All of them are fused filament fabrication (FFF) printers.

Certifications

There is no certification to use these machines. However, our 3D Print 101 class is recommended for first time users.

Materials

Members are encouraged to bring their own filaments for printing and store them in their bins when done. Below and above the main 3D printing table are various spools of 1.75mm and 2.85mm filament donated by others which are free to use. Any members who leave their spools out, by default, allow other members to use them at will.

Changing Nozzles

Ultimaker printers equipped with Olsson blocks can have their nozzles easily changed.

Troubleshooting

For mechanical and electrical failures of the machines, please stop using the machine and notify the #3dprinting Slack channel with the issue.
