Travis lab repairs firetruck gear for 5 cents Staff Sgt.

(Courtesy photo) TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE Travis Air Force Base’s Phoenix Spark Lab used its 3-D printers March 2 to replace a damaged part for a base firetruck and return it to the inventory in one day – and it did so for only 5 cents. By 3-D printing the part, rather than ordering a replacement, the base saved upward of $2,700, according to Senior Master Sgt. Phil Edwards, Phoenix Spark Lab superintendent. He said the members of the lab used only 5 cents worth of plastic.
