The Archer Branch Library has a 3D printer! Learn how you can submit projects for printing.

3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is a process that creates three-dimensional objects from digital designs by depositing materials—such as plastic, metal, or resin—layer by layer. Unlike subtractive manufacturing, it builds parts from the bottom up, allowing for complex geometries, reduced material waste, and rapid prototyping.

Join us for a basic introduction to 3D printing. All materials supplied. 

Please note that this class is for ages 8 and up.
