Prusa I3 Mk3

The Prusa I3 Mk3 is a fast, high-quality 3D printer able to reliably produce objects down to 50 micron (0.05mm) resolution. We utilize the PrusaSlicer application to generate the G-Code, which learners upload to OctoPuppet units to then read and run the machine.

Learners may bring their own materials to print with(PLA, Nylon, Polycarbonate, etc) if they would like to use a color/material that the FabLab does not stock.  A limited selection of PLA is provided by the FabLab as well for learners who do not wish to bring their own filament roll.
