Project Pricing*
These prices are only a starting point. Every project is priced individually. We take into account the cost of materials, amount of hands-on staff time and machine usage. For an exact cost of your project, please contact us for a quote at makerlab@jjc.edu.
*Please note: Our prices are considered quite reasonable for the industry, however, our turnaround may be slower than what you may expect. Deadlines are dependent on MakerLab priorities of community and student access.
