Custom Replacement Parts

A few weeks back I was contacted by a gentleman that had heard about GHS students 3D printing. He told me that he had a part from one of his light fixtures break but was not able to find replacement pieces since the light was vintage.

SeeMeCNC in Schools

If you are a teacher / professor / student using 3D printers for educational purposes, what school are you from, what printer(s) are you using, and what are you printing?

What has been your biggest struggle getting 3D printing off the ground in your classes?
