3D Printing

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an additive manufacturing process that creates a physical object from a digital design. Bring your creations to life in the Makerspace with staff-assisted printing on one of our three 3D printers — a LulzBot TAZ Workhorse and two Flashforge Adventurers.
