Learn how to find, prepare, and print 3D models on our Prusa MK3S+ 3D printer! No previous knowledge is required. This class will cover where to source 3D models online, how to slice files using Prusa Slicer, and how to operate the machine. You are encouraged to bring your own laptop to the class and download Prusa Slicer by clicking here, but it is not required.

This class will not include a 3D modeling aspect. If you are interested in learning 3D modeling, check out our other class—3D Printer Orientation: Foundations of CAD

Taking the 3D Printer Orientation is required to use our in-house printer. You must also be a member of NE Seattle Tool Library or Shoreline Tool Library to take this class. Become a member here!

Our sliding scale for classes helps to reduce barriers for participation while retaining sufficient income for Seattle REconomy, which owns and operates the NE Seattle and Shoreline tool libraries. Please choose the level that best fits your family’s income.
