-====== 3D Printing ====== 
- 
-<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. 
- 
-===== Materials ===== 
- 
-Different 3D printers accept different materials. Check the page for [[:3dprinters#makes_and_models|whichever printer you are using]] to identify allowable filament. 
- 
-The table below specifies costs of materials kept at Quelab. 
- 
-<WRAP info> All values are in //per-gram//  increments of ALL consumed materials, **including**  failed prints and support material.</WRAP>

-|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
