== Description ==
A decent filament-based (FDM) 3D printer. Similar in size and design to the Prusa i3 MK3's. Though simpler and lower in cost (these have manual bed leveling) they are capable of producing very good-quality prints. PS1 currently has two of these.

Uses 1.75 mm filament. Capable of printing PLA, ABS and other kinds of filament. Ships with 0.4 mm nozzles.

== Status ==

03?/2019 - Installed and operational at PS1. Availability for member use pending training.

== OctoPrint ==

Both Ender 3 printers are operated and managed via an OctoPrint print server. Users upload their gcode files to the printers through the OctoPrint interface, accessible through PS1's internal Wi-Fi network. 

OctoPrint IP addresses for each printer: 

Ender #1 10.30.0.21 
Ender #2 10.30.0.22 
 

== Operation ==

===1. Prepare the Printer===
====''1a. Clean the nozzle''====

====''1d. Set printer settings for your job''====
put info here - note: for the 203 OctoPrint printer, you can control & monitor bed & nozzle temps

===2. Prepare Your .STL file===
Put info about Cura or Prusa Slicer here...

===3. Upload & Print Your .STL File===

====''3(a). (content)

3(a)1. (content)

3(a)2. (content)

3(a)3. Then...[put info here]

3(b)1. Open a web browser connected to a computer/device on the PS1 network & enter 10.100.1.203 in the IP address field.
Note: If printer has been turned off, you may need to first select "Connect" under the left side Connection tab if the printer has been turned off. '''All settings to connect are retained and should not be modified.'''

3(b)2. Warm up the printer (if you haven't already) using the controls on the Temperature tab -- enter a temperature in Celsius and click "Set"

3(b)3. Set printer's feed & flow rates, as well as fan settings (if you haven't already done so on the printer). You can control the printer' movements & extrusion in the 'Control' tab.

3(b)4. Upload STL file using the left side "Files" tab.

3(b)5. Find the STL you uploaded and click the "Slice" button (it looks like a magic wand). Note: Cura is the default slicing engine.

3(b)6. Select one of the preset slicing profiles, and then manually set your preferred temperatures and speeds using the Basic and Advanced tabs. This will generate G-Code, exporting a GCO file.

3(b)7. Locate your GCO (G-Code) file in the Files tab on the left side. Click 'Load and Print' to print your object.

''This is only a high level overview of how to use OctoPrint. If you are already authorized but have not used OctoPrint, feel free to attend future authorization sessions. OctoPrint will accept g-code from the most popular slicers such as Cura, Slic3r, Repetier-Host, and Simplify3D.''

===4. Post-Printing===
After your printing is complete, follow these guidelines.

====''4a. Delete your files''====
Delete your files from the OctoPrint server and/or borrowed SD cards. You can download your GCO file for future printing if you would like to retain the specific sliced project.

Computer Numeric Control: computerized tools for manufacturing and crafting.

== Rules ==

===Clean Up===
* Please allot time for your project to clean up after yourselves. Throw away scrap, and store usable materials in the file cabinet.
* Empty Laser Engraver catch trays.
* Please return all tools from where you found them.
* Empty the trash when it is full

===Conserving Energy===
* Turn off the exhaust after a project. Do not cycle the exhaust rapidly.
* Turn off the Lights and A/C at the end of the day.
* Turn off 3D printers when prints are done.

===Storage===
* There is absolutely no member storage in the CNC area. Please clean up all projects when you are done. Left over projects without any documentation will be thrown away.

== Safety ==

Lasers are known to cause fire. If you leave your laser unattended, anyone else SHOULD halt or cancel it immediately, no questions asked, no excuses. DO not pass go, do not collect $200, go to laser jail.
Lasers are more liable to cause fire if the material is too thick, has air pockets in it (like multi-layer cardboard)
Lasers can cause toxic fumes if they are used with unsafe materials. There's a page of safe and unsafe materials linked from each laser's wiki page, and that is covered in authorizations.
There is one halon fire extinguisher in the CNC room that is first choice for putting out fires associated with the laser cutters.
As long as the lids are closed, you do not need to wear additional protective eye wear to operate the lasers.
Don't mess with the safety interlocks that detect if the lid is closed.
Do not ever laser humans or animals.

== Tools Available ==

There is an automatically built list of CNC-tagged equipment at the bottom of this page. If a thing does not show up on the automatically populated list, please edit that equipment's wiki page to make it happen.

===2D Printing===
* [[HP DesignJet T520 Large Format Color Printer]]
* [[HP DesignJet 755CM Large Format Printer]] (no longer at the space)
* [[Brother_DCP-7065DN_Printer]]
* [[Vinyl_Cutter]]

===3D Printing===

* [[Prusa i3 MK3S A 3D Printer]] - There are three of these, and they're among the best 3D printers right now, since they have automatic bed-leveling technology. Direct drive printing, filament sensor.
* [[Prusa i3 MK2S A 3D Printer]] - There is one of these. Older version of MK3S
* [[Creality Ender 3 A 3D Printer]] - There are two of these. Manual bed leveling. Capable of excellent prints.

* [[MakerBot Replicator]] - Removed from the space? Gone? At the best it's offline, broken, not usable unless you like tinkering.
* Jellybox - New to PS1, broken at the moment (needs a hot-end repair) and skimpy wiki page https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Jellybox
* [[LulzBot 3D Printer|LulzBot AO-100 3D printer]] - Larger volume. Works. Regular extruder cannot do flexible filament. Flexistruder needs a firmware update to use, then you have to change the firmware back to use regular filament, which is lame but ... maybe that can be fixed/updated someday.
* [[Lulzbot Taz3|Lulzbot TAZ3 3D printer]]
* [[3dSystems CubePro|3dSystems CubeProTrio 3D printer]] - Usable, but has a weird history of using proprietary filament so then we hacked it so that it can use any old filament but ... read the CubePro wiki page, the backstory is needed if you intend to use it.
* [[FormLabs Form 1+ SLA 3D Printer]] - Stereolithography-type printer, resin-based.
===3D Scanning===
* [[Cubify Sense 3d Scanner]] - Hacked to use non-proprietary filament but has never been quite as good since the hack.
* [[Matter and Form 3D Scanner]] - Mostly sucks. Count on it taking an hour to scan a medium sized thing, too. Really, really sucks.

===Laser Cutter/Engravers===
* [[Epilog 30w Mini 24 Laser Engraver]]
* [[BOSS LS-3655 150w Laser Engraver]]
* [[Universal PLS6.150D 150W Laser Engraver]]

===CNC Routers===
* [[ShapeOko2 CNC Router]]
* [[CNC Plasma Cutter]]
* [[Shopbot PRS CNC router]]
* [[Tormach_1100_series_CNC_mill]]

===CNC Mills===
* [[Tormach 1100 series CNC mill]]

===Misc Equipment===
* [[Vinyl Cutter]]
* [[Gingery Plastic Injection Machine]]

== Supplies ==

Supplies are generally not provided. There are some PS1-owned bits in the drawer for the ShopBot, but you may wish to purchase your own bits if you want to be confident that you'll have a good, sharp bit of the appropriate size for your project. If you break a shop-owned bit, please tell the area host and post a note to the wiki and Google group.

There is often some common-use filament available for the TAZ3, AO-100 or Replicator 3D printers, but you may also used your own if you want to be confident that you'll have enough high-quality filament for your project. Filament can be purchased at MicroCenter and other retailers for about $20 per spool. Filament can be purchased for the Cube printer for about $100 per cartridge.

All machines, including the vinyl cutter and large format printers, should have information about their consumables listed on their respective wiki page.

There is a donation box next to the Cube printer for filament; suggested donation for Cube filament is 30 cents per gram.

== Authorization ==

Authorization for the '''[[Shopbot_PRS_CNC_router]]''' will appear as a [https://www.meetup.com/Pumping-Station-One Meetup event], and on the [http://pumpingstationone.org/events/ PS1 event calendar].

Authorization for other equipment varies, the policy may be listed on the tool's own wiki page. Some authorization events may be listed as Meetup events, Signup.com events, on the PS1 event calendar (which is mirrored on the PS1 web site "Events" page) or may be announced on the PS1 Google Group (generally the private one, not the public one).

To be able to log in on the lasers or ShopBot PCs you must have your member login account modified by a member who has admin privileges. Once you are authorized, you will use the same username and password you would use on any other PS1 computer.

Computer Numeric Control: computerized tools for manufacturing and crafting.

== Rules ==

===Clean Up===
* Please allot time for your project to clean up after yourselves. Throw away scrap, and store usable materials in the file cabinet.
* Empty Laser Engraver catch trays.
* Please return all tools from where you found them.
* Empty the trash when it is full

===Conserving Energy===
* Turn off the exhaust after a project. Do not cycle the exhaust rapidly.
* Turn off the Lights and A/C at the end of the day.
* Turn off 3D printers when prints are done.

===Storage===
* There is absolutely no member storage in the CNC area. Please clean up all projects when you are done. Left over projects without any documentation will be thrown away.

== Safety ==

Lasers are known to cause fire. If you leave your laser unattended, anyone else SHOULD halt or cancel it immediately, no questions asked, no excuses. DO not pass go, do not collect $200, go to laser jail.
Lasers are more liable to cause fire if the material is too thick, has air pockets in it (like multi-layer cardboard)
Lasers can cause toxic fumes if they are used with unsafe materials. There's a page of safe and unsafe materials linked from each laser's wiki page, and that is covered in authorizations.
There is one halon fire extinguisher in the CNC room that is first choice for putting out fires associated with the laser cutters.
As long as the lids are closed, you do not need to wear additional protective eye wear to operate the lasers.
Don't mess with the safety interlocks that detect if the lid is closed.
Do not ever laser humans or animals.

== Tools Available ==

There is an automatically built list of CNC-tagged equipment at the bottom of this page. If a thing does not show up on the automatically populated list, please edit that equipment's wiki page to make it happen.

===2D Printing===
* [[HP DesignJet T520 Large Format Color Printer]]
* [[HP DesignJet 755CM Large Format Printer]] (no longer at the space)
* [[Brother_DCP-7065DN_Printer]]
* [[Vinyl_Cutter]]

===3D Printing===

* Prusa i3 MK3S A 3D Printer - There are three of these, and they're among the best 3D printers right now, since they have automatic bed-leveling technology. Direct drive printing, filament sensor.
* [[Prusa i3 MK2S A 3D Printer]] - There is one of these.
* Creality Ender 3 A 3D Printer - There are two of these. Manual bed leveling. Capable of excellent prints.

* [[MakerBot Replicator]] - Removed from the space? Gone? At the best it's offline, broken, not usable unless you like tinkering.
* Jellybox - New to PS1, broken at the moment (needs a hot-end repair) and skimpy wiki page https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Jellybox
* [[LulzBot 3D Printer|LulzBot AO-100 3D printer]] - Larger volume. Works. Regular extruder cannot do flexible filament. Flexistruder needs a firmware update to use, then you have to change the firmware back to use regular filament, which is lame but ... maybe that can be fixed/updated someday.
* [[Lulzbot Taz3|Lulzbot TAZ3 3D printer]]
* [[3dSystems CubePro|3dSystems CubeProTrio 3D printer]] - Usable, but has a weird history of using proprietary filament so then we hacked it so that it can use any old filament but ... read the CubePro wiki page, the backstory is needed if you intend to use it.
* FormLabs Form 1+ SLA 3D Printer - Stereolithography-type printer, resin-based.
===3D Scanning===
* [[Cubify Sense 3d Scanner]] - Hacked to use non-proprietary filament but has never been quite as good since the hack.
* [[Matter and Form 3D Scanner]] - Mostly sucks. Count on it taking an hour to scan a medium sized thing, too. Really, really sucks.

===Laser Cutter/Engravers===
* [[Epilog 30w Mini 24 Laser Engraver]]
* [[BOSS LS-3655 150w Laser Engraver]]
* [[Universal PLS6.150D 150W Laser Engraver]]

===CNC Routers===
* [[ShapeOko2 CNC Router]]
* [[CNC Plasma Cutter]]
* [[Shopbot PRS CNC router]]
* [[Tormach_1100_series_CNC_mill]]

===CNC Mills===
* [[Tormach 1100 series CNC mill]]

===Misc Equipment===
* [[Vinyl Cutter]]
* [[Gingery Plastic Injection Machine]]

== Supplies ==

Supplies are generally not provided. There are some PS1-owned bits in the drawer for the ShopBot, but you may wish to purchase your own bits if you want to be confident that you'll have a good, sharp bit of the appropriate size for your project. If you break a shop-owned bit, please tell the area host and post a note to the wiki and Google group.

There is often some common-use filament available for the TAZ3, AO-100 or Replicator 3D printers, but you may also used your own if you want to be confident that you'll have enough high-quality filament for your project. Filament can be purchased at MicroCenter and other retailers for about $20 per spool. Filament can be purchased for the Cube printer for about $100 per cartridge.

All machines, including the vinyl cutter and large format printers, should have information about their consumables listed on their respective wiki page.

There is a donation box next to the Cube printer for filament; suggested donation for Cube filament is 30 cents per gram.
