A 3D printer is a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) device that creates three-dimensional objects. Like a traditional printer, a 3D printer receives digital data from a computer as input. However, instead of printing the output on paper, a 3D printer builds a three-dimensional model out of a custom material.
The Bridge currently offers 3D printing for patrons on the Creality Ender 3.
Resources such as Thingiverse and Tinkercad provide design tools, as well as pre-designed 3D models for users to download.
