3D Printers

  • Enclosed CoreXY Printers — Fast, versatile machines good for most work. Enclosure allows ABS/ASA in addition to PLA and PETG.
  • Snapmaker U1 — Four-toolhead toolchanger (270×270×270mm). Each head holds its own preheated filament, so multi-color/multi-material prints swap heads in seconds with almost no purge waste. Partially enclosed with no chamber heater, so stick to PLA, PETG, and TPU. Slice in Snapmaker Orca or OrcaSlicer. 📄 Full Machine Wiki Guide →
  • Elegoo Orange Storm Giga — Massive-format open-frame printer (800×800×1000mm) with four independent heated PEI beds. Upgraded to the custom Open OrangeStorm operating system — it runs differently than our stock machines. ⚠️ Guidance required — see a volunteer before use. 📄 Full Machine Wiki Guide →

📦 In Storage

⚠️ These machines have been moved into storage for now to make room for our new printers. They are not available for member use at this time. Their wiki guides are kept here for reference.
