Greetings Everyone,
I am seeking assistance from the Forensic's Lab or State Police regarding my upcoming AFTE Workshop " PMF Investigations - Recommended Best Practices & Challenges For The Investigator & Forensic Lab".
I am hoping to borrow a 3D printer (FDM / SLA) as well as 3D printed/CNC fabricated firearms & components for the duration of the workshop.


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Hello,


Unfortunately the Alaska State Scientific Crime Detection Laboratory, Anchorage Police Department, and the Alaska State Troopers do not have any 3D printers or 3D printed fabricated firearms/components.

Maybe the Anchorage University has a 3D printer.  I know that the university in Flagstaff does.

I have no contact but the full names of our two Anchorage Universities are:  University of Alaska, Anchorage and Alaska Pacific University.

Alternatively, you could pre-print the parts and mail it up to the host committee.


Edit: missed the part about needs a 3D printer as well. Go with Dustin's suggestion as long as you're not trying to print a whole firearm for demonstration purposes. Might take longer than a full day workshop. Smaller parts, sure.

Order printer.  Ship to AK.  Use for class.  Add to raffled items.  Profit?  Ender 2 Pro would be an easy to set up and use printer.  Unfortunately shipping expense may be only downside.
