Printing in 3-D




Imagination Station is now home to a Fab @ Home "fabber". Technically Fab @ Home is a desktop fabricator that can make almost anything (within reason) right on your desk. The term "printer" is to help people understand the concept that this is something that can connect to your home computer and create objects when you hit "print." See the video below to understand more about how these work. It will be a few weeks before we get ours on the floor, so check back in on the progress. We have to be sure we know how to use it and design a display case for it. But, when it's ready it will be available for all to watch it work!
