Access

Students who have attended an orientation session have access to the 3D printer - you can access the printer with your Toshka card.
Dates and times for the orientation sessions will be posted on the GMU mailing list

Darsha is currently working out some guidelines.
They will be published on this very page.

Rules

For now here are three simple rules to keep in mind:

1. You may only use the 3D printer, if you attended the 3D Printer Introduction by Darsha
2. If you use the 3D printer you must stick to the guidelines set up and enforced by Darsha H. Hewitt
3. You are not allowed to let other people into the room or print stuff for other students
   unless this is part of a group project at GMU
