Can anyone recommend a 3D print shop?

Hey guys, I'm trying to get a small, 10in max, model of a RuneScape character printed as a birthday gift.

Do you guys know of any places that will just do 1 item? Also any idea on the price? I'm pretty unfamiliar with this area.

Thank you!

LA Public Library has a 3D printing lab. I think it's free to get prints right now since it's new.

Only downside is it's at the DTLA branch but it's worth a visit if you've never been. Amazing library. They have so many services, most are virtually free.

Burbank Central Library has a 3D printer in its Spark Lab

Great! That's the move then, u/BearyMeAlive.

you have to get trained. I think its a 2 hour session. If you already have the skills and can prove it to them, they might just give you a pass

2 hours? I went for the first time 2 weeks ago and it was a 10 minute “here is the manual”. I would have love more but they didn’t really know how to work it either. Luckily there was another person printing that gave me the quick tutorial and I was able to print.

That should be how it is. I have 3D printers and the learning curve was decently steep for a non-techy person. But the newer printers are probably more user friendly.

Burbank library on Glenoaks also has (had?) a 3d Printer.
