3D Printing – in the Maker Studio at the Warren Library
Printer: Prusa i3 MK3S+
3D printing is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a digital model.
The Maker Studio has a Prusa i3 MK3S+ 3D printer.
Our printer uses PLA filament. You can download model files from popular 3D communities such as Thingiverse and Printables or you can create a model yourself with free programs like Tinkercad and SketchUp.
The cost to print a 3D model is $0.25 per 15 minutes of printing, with a maximum print time of 10 hours per print.
Acceptable Materials: PLA
May I Bring My Own Materials? No, the library will supply the PLA filament for printing.
Project Ideas: Figurines, models, replacements parts, custom tools, and more!
Things to Know:
- Files must be submitted in the STL, 3MF, or OBJ format
- Objects must fit within the printer’s build space of 9.8” x 8.2” x 8.2″.
- Library staff will print your item as soon as possible depending on machine availability. We will email you when your print is received and when it is ready to be picked up.
Submit your print using our online form and staff will print it for you.
