Materials

Before purchasing any materials to be used in DigiFab, please check with Mike, Lonny, or a workstudy first so that we can make sure it works for the process and function that you want it for. Some materials may not work on our machines and some sources' materials aren't flat enough to work on our machines. It is best to get this confirmation rather than taking a chance at wasting money and time on something that wont work.
