3D Printing

The Innovation Hub has over twenty 3D printers that you can utilize at no cost. Download a 3D model or design your own objects using 3D software, then send the print job to one of our printers. This can be done at the Hub or remotely through 3DprinterOS.com.

Past Workshop: Valentine’s Day
3D Printing

More than 60 students, staff , and faculty members participated in two Valentine’s Day-themed workshops in early February. The workshops were attended both in-person and via Zoom as the latest hybrid offering from the Hub.

Participants learned to manipulate 3D objects such as a heart pendants, earrings, and photo frames; and then send them to one of the Innovation Hub printers. Participant were able to drop by the Hub later to pick up their prints in time for Valentine’s Day.
