Access

Students who have attended an orientation session have access to the 3D printer - you can access the printer with your Thoska 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:

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