How can I print something on one of the 3D printers?
There are three ways to get something printed:
- Pay to Print. Anyone can purchase a print. We charge based on the size of the model (and how much filament is used). See below for more information on selecting and buying a print.
- Design your own 3D model & Print for Free. Use Tinkercad or another program of your choice to create your own model. Student-created designs are free to print on EDGE Lab printers.
- Attend EDGE Lab Aspire & Print for Free. Sign up for our after-school Aspire program and get free prints during Aspire time!
If I want to pay to print, how much does it cost?
It depends on the size of the model and how much filament is used, the general guidelines for pricing are as follow:
- $0.10 per gram of filament use for the model
How can I find a design to print?
If you want to print a design that someone else has already created, go to www.thingiverse.com and select a design. Then, let Mr. Torres know and he’ll help you get your print set up and ready to go.
How long will it take to get my print?
It depends on how many people are waiting, the size of the print, and how many printers are currently in operation. Some designs can only be printed on certain printers, and 3D printers are prone to problems such as filament clogs, electrical issues, leveling trouble, etc. that take time to troubleshoot and fix. We can give you an estimated time, but please be aware that it may take longer than expected.
