Welcome, new students, and welcome back, old ones. Don’t forget about the 3D printing service when thinking about projects! A couple of late summer prints: Radiolaria models A finch A cross-section of a siphon device (similar to a Pythagorean cup) […]

Another one down
Another semester under our belts! We had an average of 3.9 printing requests per week, a lot of fossils and pedagogical items. Another great semester for the service! We’re still around in the summer so if you have any ideas, please send them our way. And congratulations to all the graduates this week! […]
WELCOME BACK
Welcome to a new semester! We’re already rolling with new print requests, so don’t hesitate to contact us if you want something done. Also don’t forget our colleagues at the Columbia Maker Space and the Barnard Design Center, two other options available to everybody! […]
Almost at the finish line
Don’t let the lack of activity on this blog fool you — this has been one of the busiest semesters for the 3D printing service in recent memory. So busy, in fact, that I kept forgetting to photograph completed prints! Apologies to those of you who submitted personal items for printing — I have had […]
Welcome back!
Students are back in classes and the service is still humming along. Visit our Getting Started and Policies pages and submit a model to be printed for free! […]
Happy Summer

Happy Holidays!
Given that there are still a few things in the queue, it’s probably safe to say that we’re done processing submissions for the year. Feel free to send them in, just know that they’ll be dealt with when we start up again in January. Here are a few recent prints. And here’s a recycled holiday […]
Year’s almost over…
…and that means the 3D printing service will go on a brief hiatus. Realistically, the last day we’ll be accepting submissions will probably be around the 13th. I say ‘probably’ since if someone submitted something tiny, we could probably fire that off before we stop for the year. As always, submissions will be evaluated on […]
Workshop – Nov 10, Butler 306
We try to offer interesting workshops on a variety of subjects — you can always check our Workshops page to see what’s coming up — and in a mix of locations. Next Friday (November 10), we’ll be offering an intro to 3D design session in Butler 306 at 2pm. If you haven’t had a chance […]
Congratulations!
Good job on another end of semester. Hopefully it’s all gone well. If you’re hanging about this summer, remember that we’re here year-round! […]
