==== 3D Printers ====

There are many different types of 3D printers. The most common type you are probably familiar with are those that print plastic. This is the type that we're going to discuss here.

The one we have here is the MakerBot Replicator+. This is what we will be using to print.

If you need the manual, you can download it [[http://pdf.home.mygarfield.us/pdf/shared/06be5aef-6f0f-4289-bfda-f6b7d6bb6b86|here]].


==== Filament ====
There are many types of filament material. However, this printer only supports PLA plastic. We will be using this material to print our projects.


==== Donations ====

The most costly part of 3D printing is the filament material. We can always use donations to help fund this. You ( or your parents ) can donate money/gift cards.

If you would prefer a more direct donation, you can purchase one of the following filaments and bring it to the library.
