Across:

3.	Any plastic which can be transitioned to a molten form by heating and then which solidifies again when it cools.
6.	Breakaway Support Technology used by printers which add disposable supports to sloping, or overhanging parts.
9.	The act of placing the build material on the build platform.

10.	An engineering polymer commonly used to produce car bumpers and Lego blocks - tough, strong, but safe for kids to handle.
12.	A technique used to prevent warping. Parts are built on top of a disposable material instead of directly on the build surface.
13.	Parts which handles feeding and extruding of the build material.

Down:

1.	Plastic material made into string to be used as raw material in 3D printers.
2.	The build plate of the 3D printer on which parts are made.
4.	A biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch and sugar canes. Cools quickly reducing warping.
5.	______ Manufacturing

7.	The recommended file format used to describe 3D projects.
8.	A ______ bed is used to keep the base of an extruded part from cooling (and shrinking too quickly.
11.	______ material acts as support to allow overhangs, arches, etc. to be printed.
