3d Printers

Taz 6 Printer

 

The Lulzbot Taz 6 is an ideal printer for beginners- friendly to use interface and a high rate of print success means that this is the perfect machine for trying out printing for the first time. 

Current Status: Online

Ender 5 Printer

 

The Ender 5 is up and running, thanks to a replacement part printed by our Taz 6. This printer is an excellent choice for tech-savy users who want a more heavyweight machine with an absolutely massive build volume. 

Current Status: Online

 

Mono 4k Printer

 

Unlike our other printers, our Mono 4k prints with a resin dipping process, which can result in higher resolution and reduced layer lines.

Foxalien CNC Router

 

The Foxalien CNC Router is ideal for carving wood projects and engravings. Our CNC routing software lets you import a G-code file to pre-program the path of the carving bit for professional-grade projects.
