Machine Access Policy

Use of the 3D printers requires attendance in a 3D printer certification workshop or certification from an approved peer-certifier.

  • Any member who has been certified to use the 3D printer may peer-certify other members
  • Certification instruction must at least include
    • Fundamental knowledge of each printer's working principles
    • Proper use and control of each printer
    • Software workflow
    • How to change filament
    • How to pay for material
  • Certification must be documented (link to instructions or form) prior to use
  • List of 3D Printer Certified users is listed below
