synopsis

To make sure we can have a 3D printing workshop, we need a working printer.

Vicarious made a start by visiting a hands-on build-your-own 3D printer, but the parts need to be completed or improved.

status

Roelke invested a lot of time and approximately €100.- to get to the point where we are now: The printer is working; software has been installed on the (open) lab-pc, the settings have been tuned and the board has been calibrated, and we have light blue and black(?) filament (and a little bit of red for Vicarious' flashlight cone).

To be able to work with the printer, one needs to know how to calibrate and grease it. Roelke is planning to give a first hands-on somewhere near Dec 20th, and will do a quick glance over it somewhere the week after.

donations

You can help with this project by donating a small amount of money so we are able to buy supplies and components to get the 3D printer working again. The idea is: if you donate to the printer, the printer will give you a 3D thank you souvenir. Note that this idea needs some work.
