3D Printers

The 3D printers requires training before use! To start the training process, click here.

Materials

We require that all patrons use 1.75mm ABS filament for the P1S printers. This filament is provided in the DIG. Once trained and certified on the equipment, you can complete prints with a duration of 24 hours or less. If using the printer for a class, they may provide filament for that use. If you plan to exceed the allowable time limit, please see a staff member for approval and purchase materials to contribute to the community supply. If you are interested in using personal filament, (ABS or other types) please see a staff member for approval.

Software

To use the printers, you must either obtain an STL file from a repository such as MakerWorld or Thingiverse, or design an STL file in SolidWorks or another CAD program (you can use our laptops!). The software required to use the P1S 3D printers, BambuLab, you can see a staff member for training on this program.
