Line 86: − + − + − + − Here are a couple things to keep in mind:+ − − − * Never weld in wet clothes or around water. − * Never try to weld any type of tank that has ever held flammable liquids. This is very dangerous and can explode! − * Always check your welding hood settings prior to welding. (start with a darker setting and work your way down. − * Welding takes lots of practice so don't be afraid to ask for help. − − − ==== <span id="FDM Printing Anchor">FDM Printing</span> ==== − Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printers use a thermoplastic filament, which is heated to its melting point, then extruded to create layers which then build an object. There are many different types of FDM printers. Some use a modeling material and a support material, some just use a modeling material which when creating support will use a different style of layering that allows the filament to break off easily, some are able to use multiple filaments at once allowing for multicolored objects to be created. [[File:Filament_Spool.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Example of a filament spool for a FDM printer.]] − − Both Stratasys printers (Dimension and F370) use soluble support filament (the support filament dissolves in a heated sodium hydroxide bath), the Prusa printers use only a model material, and the Markforge printer only uses model material as well (however it will layer another filament for extra support). − − The filament for these printers comes in spools (basically thin plastic ropes that are wound up). The filament is fed through an extruder head, heated to the desired temperature, then extruded (similar to what happens with a hot glue gun). − − FDM printers can work with various materials, in the Prototype Lab we mainly stick to ABS which is used by the Stratasys machines and PLA which is used by the Prusas. The Markforge uses a material called Onyx (nylon and plastic mix) and will layer in another filament such as Carbon Fiber, Kevlar, etc. − − − Line 102:

These are a few good steps to having a success using the Finishing Room.
These are a few things to keep in mind when using the Finishing Room.
* Make sure you read the label of any paints or chemicals you are working with and understand the dangers.
* Make sure you read the label of any paints or chemicals you are working with and understand the dangers.
* Make sure the fan is turned on and pulling air.
* Make sure the fan is turned on and moving air.
* When you sand it creates dust that may be hazardous to breath.
* When painting make sure you are not breathing paint vapors.
* Material will be very hot after welding so always think before touching.
* Make sure the welder is properly grounded before attempting to weld.
