    Does anyone know if any departments have a 3d printer? I know there's a high spec one in the nimbus center but I doubt students would be able to get access to it.

    Thinking of getting one for a society, a reprap is an cheap option if we can print some of the components in cit.

    Mech Eng has a 3d printer. It's in the mechanics lab around A272 or thereabouts.
