before you plan to print any projects.\u00a0 Check the bulletins for scheduled workshops or ask at the CircDesk to schedule an orientation.<\/li>\n<li>Printing will not be free.\u00a0 You will be

only&#8211;we&#8217;re not getting rich here).<\/li>\n<li>Drop-in printing sessions will be limited to 1 hour; reserved printing sessions can be longer, but you must talk to us about your plans and you need to be available to start &amp; finish the project.<\/li>\n<li>Projects are limited to the colours &amp; filament type we have on hand.\u00a0 Currently we have:<br \/>\n<table border=\"8\"
