General Info
3D printing has been a hot topic for almost a decade and the Hackspace gives you access to several different printers. As they can be slightly noisy and generate fumes, they are based in a dedicated room along with the second smaller laser cutter.
Lulzbot Minis
The Lulzbot Minis are good general purpose FDM printers for small to medium sized prints in plastic.
Ender-5 Plus
The Ender-5 Plus is another FDM printer, well suited to larger prints, but be warned, larger prints can take a very long time to complete.
Anycubic Photon
The Anycubic Photon is an SLA printer which used UV cured to print in very high detail, but the resin itself is expensive, hazardous and must be handled with care.
