I know I am late to this post but this is something we have been considering, on a very minimal level. I have thought about simply setting up a 3D printer in our office and letting anyone who wants to use it, to come chat with us. I simply would like to have one handy for us. No idea how the charge structure would work, if at all in the initial stages.

Subject: Makerspace anyone?
All -
In my new role at WPI, we host a rather robust Makerspace. This is new to me and I'd like to know what other Institutions have similar facilities and how they are managed (specifically - who funds the facility for regular operations or any new instrument purchases)? Thank you!
