Synopsis
The Specialty 3d Area, which is responsible for 3d printing, scanning, and modelling technologies beyond the scope of FDM 3d printing. Typically the Specialty 3d Area is included in the Yearly omnibus, but since Specialty 3d will not have an Area Host until March, it did not have a representative to participate in the budgeting process. This vote provides funding for the Specialty 3d Area for the rest of the 2026 calendar year.
