3-D printer demonstration slated for June 30

3-D printer

What is 3-D printing? How does a 3-D printer work? Can you really print a spatula from the comfort of your own home?

Find out the answers to these questions and more at our 3-D printer demonstration Tuesday, June 30, at 6 p.m. at the Waverly library.

Jay Burton, director of the Southeast Regional Library System, will give a presentation on the emerging technology, and you can see a real live 3-D printer in action.
