Makerspace
Currently hosted in the Innovation Lab, the makerspace is available for students, faculty and staff to do 3D Printing. If you want to get something printed at the Inno Lab Makerspace, there is an easy 4 step process to create your parts!
Usage of our printers, including the filament, is 100% free like the rest of the Inno Lab Makerspace, for personal, class, or research projects.
Along the way while creating your first part, you will naturally learn the fundamentals of 3D printing as a Prototyping Instructor guides you through generating your STL, slicing your part, sending your G-Code to the printer, and picking up your part.
Interested in using our 3D printers? Shoot us an email at innovate@cau.edu
