    The document discusses stereo-lithography, a 3D printing process. It lists advantages like no machining skill needed and ability to make impossible parts, and disadvantages like material limitations and cost. It describes how stereo-lithography works by stacking 2D images to build a model using both build and support materials. Finally, it provides resources, specs, and ordering instructions for 3D printing parts through the university.
