===== About =====

The MiiCraft 3D printer is located in Elings Hall 2442. It is a Digital Light Processing (DLP) printer, which is functionally similar to SLA printing but uses a projected light source rather than a laser. With its proprietary resin, this printer is capable of printing small, high-resolution parts. The MiiCraft is commonly used to print molds for microfluidic devices due to its high accuracy.

===== Safety Concerns =====
The resin used for casting PDMS molds is highly toxic. 
  * Wear gloves and a lab coat when handling.
  * Follow proper fume hood procedure when cleaning parts.
  * Transport prints in dedicated transport containers to prevent resin spillage.
  * Dispose of liquid waste in labeled waste jugs and solid waste in the yellow waste bin
