We’re excited to offer FREE 3D printing for members at Fuse33! We know getting started with 3D printing can be intimidating and it all seems really complicated, so we want to make it a little easier.

In this certification you will learn what you need to safely and successfully operate our DaVinci Jr 1.0 3D Printers.

• How to choose a file to print
• What file formats you can use
• How to load filament
• How to unload filament
• What to do if the filament gets clogged in the machine (using a specialized and specific tool)
• What it means if your project stopped printing
• How to save time and filament (the material you use for printing) by choosing the right print settings
• Plus everything else you need to get started making things safely.

Once you get certified, you can print as much as you’d like. And don’t worry about messing up, you’re not paying for the time! Just bring in your filament and start making!

We require that all Fuse33 Maker, Maker Plus and Maker Pro members take this Laser Certification course before using our 36″x24″ laser cutting and engraving machine. If you have previous experience in using a laser cutter, you’ll be able to speed right through.

We will help you with:

Choosing the proper settings in Adobe Illustrator
Understanding the difference between vector and raster graphics
What “stroke weight” is, and why it’s important
How to set the rulers on your design file so that you know what size you’re working with
How to choose what kind of material to work with
How to divide your design file if you want to cut one layer and engrave another
How to “jog” around your project to make sure your project fits on your material
What to do if you want to use material that is a little too big for the cutting bed (and what to do if the material is a little bit warped)
Plus much more 🙂

Classes for laser certification are held every Monday at 7:45pm.

Please register below to schedule a certification day that works for you and we’ll look forward to working with you!
