FAQ

So how to you get using these cool machines? What do I have to do?
- Click on the links for the above machines to learn how to use them. More details and tutorials will be forthcoming to make your learning curve as low as possible.
- Always ask for help if you're feeling unsure. We're happy to help! While a lot of these machines do have safety measures built in, they can still be dangerous to themselves or others, so you will need to exercise some degree of caution while using them.

How do supplies work?
- Each machine has some available supplies with it- feel free to use those! All we ask is that as you use them more, contribute to the stash of supplies so others can enjoy them as you have.

Do I need to talk to anyone? How do I make sure I'm not getting in the way?
- For most of these machines, they can be used fairly quickly. Rule of thumb is that if nobody is actively using it, you're welcome to give it a shot.
- For the 3D printers, we have a google calendar schedule for you to communicate longer prints.
