We recently recieved a Original Prusa i3 MK3S lended to the space by Terry. It is fully functional now, however we still need to discuss on the rules around using this machine since we want to make sure the lended machine stays healthy.
- Please bring your own filament and only use plain PLA.
- For advanced user other filament can be considered. Please see the details section for more information.

- Build volume 250 × 210 × 210 mm / 9.8 × 8.2 × 8.2 inches
- Nozzles 0.4mm
- Avaliable print Surface:
