3D Printing

Have a 3D design you’d like to turn into a real object? Coos Bay Public Library has two 3D printers (PLA and resin) that patrons can request prints from.

Resin is recommended for high-detailed, smaller prints, such as miniatures. PLA is suitable for all other prints.

Submit the Design for printing
