The 3D printer is available for use by Twin Valley students and staff. Priority will be given to students and staff printing objects for class projects.
There is no cost to print at this time.
Projects must show evidence of “tinkering” or modification by the students (not just an object found on Thingiverse or a similar site). Students are encouraged to use www.tinkercad.com to design their own 3D objects. Offensive, inappropriate, or dangerous objects will not be printed.
