== Current Hacksburg Filament Available and Resin ==These materials are available for members to use for small projects. Please purchase your own materials for larger projetcs. * Bambu PLA Green* ERYONE PLA filament (transparent blue) -- ~1kg spoolPlus Black

== Usage and Workflow ==
The Creality general process for 3D printing is outlined below. Please see the individual printer is controlled via [[tools/3D_Printing/OctoPrint|OctoPrint]] running on a Raspberry Pi set up next to itpages for full details. The basic workflow is this:
# Convert 3D model to STL or download an STL filefrom online.#* https://www.printables.com/#* https://www.thingiverse.com/#* etc# "Slice" the STL file to generate GCode(or resin printer file).# Upload Prepare the printer#* Load filament#* Clean/level the bed#* Change nozzles if needed# Send the GCode to Octoprint and the printer.# Monitor the printer until the printis completed.
=== 3D Modeling/STL creation ===
We currently recommend [https://www.autodesksolidworks.com/productssolution/fusion3dexperience-solidworks-360makers SOLIDWORKS for Makers] or [https://www.alibre.com/atom3d/overview Fusion 360Alibre Atom3D] for creating 3D modelswhich are both available on the laser-room computer. It offers a Autodesk [https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/personal Fusion 360] offers a free license for hobbyist use].
Other options which are FOSS include:
* [http://openscad.org/ OpenSCAD] is the more mature of the two programs. It uses a text-based scripting language to define a model using CSG, making it distinct from other CAD software. It is great for making parametric parts, where a user can easily modify critical dimensions.* [http://www.mattkeeter.com/projects/antimony/3/ Antimony] is a new programanother procedural modeling software, released in Spring 2015 as a visual approach which uses an interconnected graph of nodes to CSGdefine geometry (rather than plain text). While it It is easier to use, its STL export is considerably cruder (it uses a naive algorithm for creating models)no longer receiving updates.
* [http://solvespace.com/ SolveSpace] is a constraint-based, parametric CAD program. It has the advantage of having a more traditional CAD interface, but there is a bit of a learning curve; going through the tutorials on the program's website is highly recommended.
