After creating your own 3D model follow this steps:
* Render and compile your code by pressing F6
* Export the design as .stl
* If the file is in your own computer, move the file(name.stl) to the Mac found in Turing lab(CST 222)


=== '''Overhang / Supports''' ===


Software: Meshmixer


Once you import a pre-existing model:
<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
* Use the align tool under the Edit tab to place model on bed
* Use the overhang tool under the Analysis tab to generate supports for the model
* Export as " *.stl " when finished


=== '''Instructions on how to use the 3D printers:''' ===


==== '''Robo R1+ 3D Printer''' ====


Software for the printer: MatterControl


Printing from an SD card:
*Insert a microSD card into the Mac and get rid of any files in it.
*Open MatterControl and drag your .stl file into the QUEUE section of the application.
*Then, safely remove the microSD card from the Mac and insert it into the Robo 3D printer.
*Prep the build plate using one the following:
**Glue Stick
**Vinyl Sheeting
**Hairspray
:Apply whichever product on the surface of the build plate enough to cover the surface you will be printing on.                                                             
*Turn the printer on. Your print will start after about 5 minutes.
*After the print is over, wait for the temperature to cool down and carefully remove the 3D printed object from the build plate.
*Clean the build plate.


Printing from the computer:
*Open MatterControl and drag your .stl file into the QUEUE section of the application.
*Under "Settings" ensure that the correct material is selected.
*Under "Controls" an offset of 0.9 typically shows the best results.
*Pre-heat the extruder and bed on the same page.
*Alternatively, near the top center of the screen, an extruder temperature and a bed temperature will be shown, mouse over and click "pre-heat" for both.
*Prep the build plate using one the following:
**Glue Stick
**Vinyl Sheeting
**Hairspray
*Click print once the printer has heated up.
*After the print is over, wait for the temperature to cool down and carefully remove the 3D printed object from the build plate.
*Clean the build plate.


==== '''Taz Lulzbot 3D Printer''' ====
Software for the printer: Cura


Steps to follow in order to print:
*Insert a microSD card into the Mac.
*Make sure the Taz 3D Printer is turned on.
*Safely eject the sdCard from the Mac and insert it into Taz Printer (on left side of the LCD screen)
**Make sure the SD card has the pins facing towards you when insert it
*Back on the LCD screen, rotate the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the print speed to ~50%
*After a few seconds, the LCD will display the info screen again and the printer will start heating up. Wait until the temperatures reach 240C and 64C.
*Once the printing has finished, wait for the bed to cool down and carefully remove the 3D printed object.


==== '''MakerBot 3D Printer''' ====
Software for the printer: ReplicatorG


Steps to follow in order to print:
 
*Insert a microSD card into the Mac.
 
*Open ReplicatorG, drag and drop your stl file into application screen.  
 
*Adjust your model if you need to.
== Switches ==
*bottom right.
 
*Make sure the values are set as

{| style="float:left; margin-right:2px;"
*Wait until it generates the gcode.

*After the file is generated go to the gcode tab and modify the numbers on the lines M104 should be 230 and M109 should be 128, i.e.:
|-
:M104 S230 T1 (set extruder temperature) M109 S128 T1 (set HBP  temperature)

*Wait until it is done building and then safely eject the sdCard from the Mac and insert it into the MakerBot. Note: You can find the sdCard slot as shown in the image below:
**88 Gbps
:[[File:MakerBot-slot.jpg|thumb|300px|center]]
**64 million pps
*Turn on the printer.  
*Memory:
*and then using the arrows scroll down to your file.
**2MB packet buffer
*The printer will start heating up and once it finishes heating up, it will start printing.
**16 MB dual flash
*Once the printing has finished, wait for the bed to cool down and carefully remove the 3D printed object.
**128 MB SDRAM
*Cut-through switching: No
*Unused as of May 12, 2017
