The 6D Lab

On this site I'll catalog the things that we can make in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at James Madison University in the "6D Lab".

For 3D printing we have a MakerBot Replicator 2:

For cutting paper and vinyl and for drawing with a plotting pen we have a Graphtec Craft ROBO Pro:

We also have occasional access to a MakerBot Replicator 1 at the JMU Institute for Visual Studies and a Dimension Elite 3D Printer and possibly also a powder printer in the JMU Department of Engineering. We can also have things made through shapeways.com.

The objects will start very simply because we are all new to the process of fabricating mathematical objects in Real Life. If you have an idea for an object that you would like us to try to make, please let me know.
