How it works
Filament • Available in 12 colours• 240 metres per cartridge• $45 ex Gst per colour• Made from ABS plastic (Lego)• Easy to load and unload

• 3D printer certifications• Intro courses to 3D Design• Turnaround times for 3D models• Constraints on inappropriate models• Partnerships with local schools or
clubs
