Printing weapons, weapon parts, offensive, or potentially dangerous materials is prohibited.
Printing items that infringes on copyright or any intellectual property is not allowed.
We do not charge for printing at this time because the filament has been donated, but please be aware of printing costs (only filament cost):
Amazon - $16 to $20 per 1 kg roll of PLA.
Makerbot - $48 (believe 0.9 kg) so $53.3/kg.
Makerbot has odd size spool holder, so either have to buy Makerbot, or wind another brand filament from a non compatible spool to an emptied Makerbot spool, or just suspend non compatible spool outside of holder.
