3D Printing
The Library can print your 3D designs.
Prints cost 15¢ per gram. Please make your request, using the form on this page. Once your request is approved, we’ll ask for your .stl or .obj file. When your print is ready, we’ll let you know that it’s time to come pick it up at the Library!
PLEASE READ THE GUIDELINES CAREFULLY BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR REQUEST AND DESIGN FILES. YOUR REQUEST MAY BE DECLINED IF THE GUIDELINES ARE NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
Please fill out the form to submit a request for 3D printing.
Wait until you receive confirmation that your print request has been received and submit your design files when requested.
Submitted designs files may only be .stl or .obj files. If you have multiple design files to submit, you may use a .zip file.
After we have provided the cost of the request, please confirm that you would like us to proceed.
If your request is under $5, you may pay when you pick it up. If your request is $5 or more you must pay online in advance before we can print your request. Make Payment Here
Please pick up your print within 90 days once it is completed.
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING WHEN SUBMITTING A REQUEST:
Your design should be no more than 175mm x 180mm x 190mm. Please double-check to make sure that the size of the design is the size you intend it to be.
Requests are processed as staff members are available and we may not always be able to respond or work on requests immediately.
We will try to print your designs out to any specifications provided, but we are unable to provide assistance with the designs themselves.
The filament used is PLA and we are unable to use any outside filament.
