Mastodon Makerlab
3D printing right on campus.
The Mastodon MAKERLab is a 3D print lab open to students, faculty, staff, and classes. If you are interested in our printers or the 3D printing process, feel free to stop by and talk to our technicians.
- Faculty, staff, and students will not be permitted to use the 3D printers to create materials and/or objects that are any of the following:
- Prohibited by local, state, or federal law
- Unsafe, harmful, dangerous, or obscene
- In violation of intellectual property rights (e.g., the printers cannot be used to produce copyrighted, patented, or trademarked material)
- Resemble weapons of any kind.
- The 3D print lab reserves the right to refuse any 3D print request.
- Printed items not picked up within 10 business days become the property of the 3D print lab for display purposes; items must be picked up by the individual who requested them.
- Prints often require support material to be printed. Supports are the responsibility of the 3D print technicians to remove (unless otherwise noted). Any other finishing touches (e.g., sanding, painting, and assembling) are the requester’s responsibility.
- Users must submit complete files ready for 3D printing.
- All requests must be done via web submission, with a valid university account.
- Users will see increased wait times at the end of each semester due to increased demand volume—we recommend submitting requests ahead of this time frame.
Begin the printing process by submitting a request using the website submission form. The standard file types for 3D printing are .STL or .OBJ. Once your request has been submitted a technician will respond with a price estimate for your print. Your print will be added to the queue once you have confirmed the cost. If you do not confirm the cost, your print request will not be fulfilled. When your print is completed you will receive an email from a technician notifying you it is done and ready for pickup. Your PaperCut will be charged upon completion of the print. Once the print is completed you will have seven business days to pick up your print.
All charges for requests will be deducted from your PaperCut account balance, shared with paper printing. Pricing ranges from 10 cents per gram for single-color plastic prints to 20 cents per gram of filament. Your balance will be refilled every semester and can be increased beyond the standard semester allotment by visiting the Office of the Bursar. Scanning services are available at the Digital Arts + Humanities Lab. See the equipment list for details.
