Reverse Space 6PM to 10PM 3-14-2013 – Build, Create, Collaborate.
This week Reverse Space we will be operating our Zcorp (www.zcorp.com) full color 3D powder printer. We have received multiple requests to use the printer for the production of designs by artists. If you don’t have anything to print, feel free to come by and see the entire process. This includes printing, removal of the printed item from the powder, processing the item, and the infiltration process to harden the items printed. For more information on color 3D printing, www.youtube.com has a great selections of video under the search keyword of “zcorp.”
If we have time we will most likely try to get another print from the high resolution DLP 3D printer (www.b9creator.com). We still need someone to volunteer to learn how to operate this high resolution 3D printer and create operation instructions for the space.
Our Makerspace also works on the common projects below. Anyone who comes to our space can work on any of the space's projects with free help from the staff. It is also possible to have our Makerspace fund your project if it is something that can benefit the space and global Makerspace community. To date we have received more than $50,000 in funding funding for projects and equipment for Reverse Space.
If you have any projects you are working on, feel free to bring it to Reverse Space! We have locked storage space, hundred of tools and electronics, and the largest sections of free to use 3D printers for any Makerspace (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace) on the east coast of the US. At this time membership is free.
