The Potterbot is a 3D printer built to print with wet clay. It can also be used for extruding other paste-like materials. Talk to us for training and access.

Most of the information you need is buried on the 3D Potter website, but it’s not very organized, so this page is our summary. But the most useful reference page they have is their FAQ page:

They also have 2 YouTube channels with lots of content:

For example, here’s their video on how to change out an extruder tube:

Here’s their official manual for this printer

(yes, it’s a Google Doc)

<aside> 📖 When referencing info on their site, sometimes it’s hard to parse out if you don’t know what model we have. 9 is the version, Pro is a variant that specifies the motors on ours, and Standard refers to the size of the machine and tube.
