Innprint: 3D-Printing the Motel Maintenance Problem
A practical research and guide project about using 3D printing to replace small, recurring fixtures in independent hotels and motels.
Field notes
Innprint uses three evidence layers: a family motel case study, responses from 21 hotel and motel owners, and outside research on maintenance and distributed manufacturing. The homepage reports that 20 of 21 owners mainly use universal replacement parts and compares estimated print costs for items such as toilet handles, soap holders, mirror clamps, and room signs. It also points visitors to printable models, research articles, and a guide covering printer selection, filament, nozzles, and beginner steps.
