3D Printer
Patrons can design and print items in 3D! 3D printing has a set cost per gram of filament used. We also offer multi-color printing. Printed items can be shipped to another branch for pickup. If you bring your own filament, it’s free!
Laser Cutter
Our Glowforge laser cutter has a cutting area of 11" x 20". It can cut and engrave materials up to ½ an inch.
Please be aware that staff must inspect and approve materials you wish to cut for compatibility with the machine. Staff must handle all items in and out of the machine. Not all materials can be cut. Please see the Makerspace for details.
Large Format Printer
Our photo printer is a Canon Pro-1100. It can print items as wide as 17 inches and is perfect if you need to print on photo paper or make your own posters.
Cricut
The Cricut machine is a fast-cutting machine. You can use it for stencils, cards, decorations, or any other paper crafts you can think of.
It will also cut vinyl and iron-on vinyl that you can apply with our heat press.
Sublimation Printing
With our sublimation printer and heat press, you can add your own designs to an item of your choice. Fabric of 80% polyester or more works best. Other polyester products and sublimation-accepting cups or plates will work as well.
