Getting Mod-t to work these days

[HGilbert]

We ended up contacting friends who work in a local public school with decent funding. They had older 3d printers that they were no longer using (they had upgraded) and donated them. We were given 2 Flashforge Dreamers. These are great, far better than I could have imagined getting otherwise.

Another option would be a crowdfunding project (gofundme, etc.); with a decent video from your students (or teachers) explaining the interest and need, you should easily be able to raise the amount needed. (The machines we were given currently retail for $390 new and might be available used.)
