-This is our 3D printing foundry, where the lab's three FDM 3D Printers live. We have a donated Creality CR-10 Mini, an Orion delta-bot (donated by SeeMeCNC), a Prusa i3 (donated by Troy Ross), and a refurbished Makerbot Thing-o-Matic (also a donation).+<WRAP round caution>The 3D Printers are [[:training|YELLOW tools]], and require additional training</WRAP> 
 + 
 +To help make 3D printing at quelab awesome-er, sign up for the [[http://pepper.quelab.net/mailman/listinfo/3d-printing|3d-printing mailing list]]. It's low-volume, but high-quality.

 +===== Training & Problems ===== 
 + 
 +<WRAP important round> Training is currently in flux. To be trained on the 3D printers, please contact the 3D printing officer via the [[http://pepper.quelab.net/mailman/listinfo/3d-printing|3d-printing mailing list]] to set up meeting on an open night. Without prior arrangement, there is no guarantee that there will be a 3D printing trainer available during an open night, however. </WRAP>

 +For information on usage, tips and 3D printing stuff, see: 
 + 
 +  * Using [[:3dprinter_usage|MatterControl]] to print models, as well as 
 +  * A set of [[:hardware:3dprinter:care_and_feeding|troubleshooting and maintenance]] steps.

 +|IGUS [[http://www.igus.com/wpck/15422/iglidur_TriboFilament|Tribo]]|Go get a sample from IGUS. It's expensive.|| 
 + 
 +Materials must be cleared by a 3D printing officer.

 +Materials previously cleared for use in the 3D printers: 
 + 
 +  * Filamentium / FilamentOne PLA Extrafill 
 +  * Zen Toolworks ABS and PLA 
 +  * NinjaFlex 
 +  * IGUS Tribo filament 
 +  * Push Plastic ABS and PLA
