3D Printing

3D Printing is available at the library!

Submit Your Project

• First, create your design. Use an existing design from thingiverse.com, or design your own.
• Submit your .STL file to 3DPrintClub@oswego.lib.il.us
• In your email, include your name, phone number, library card number, item description, the color you want your item to be, and which library campus for pick-up.
• Your item will be printed in the order in which it is received.
• Completion time is usually three days to one week.
• The library may decline to print your item if there are issues getting it to print, or if designs are violent, inappropriate, or violate copyright laws.
• A library card is required for 3D Printing. 

After Your File Is Printed

• Staff will contact you by email or phone when your item is ready for pick-up. Print jobs will be discarded after one month if not picked up.
• You must pay for your item at the Circulation Desk prior to pick-up.
• Staff are not responsible for removing supports or rafts from print jobs. 

Pricing

The price is based on the final weight of your item (including rafts and supports).

• Standard Plastic: $0.25 per gram
• Specialty Plastic (available upon request): TBD
• You are not responsible for the cost of failed prints.
