The 3D printer has quite a few helpful recipes on it that you can print out and use.

However, you’ll first need to reach the 3D printer to access its recipes.

In this survival guide, we’ll cover where to find the 3D printer in Sons of the Forest as well as how to use it.

Head To A Green Dot Close To Streams To Find The 3D Printer

The 3D printer is one of the green dots that’s sort of blinking on your GPS.

The problem is figuring out which blinking green dot it is.

The green dot you’ll want to travel to is near the center of the island.

It’s close by a wavy stream.

In fact, you can easily follow the stream until you reach a golf cart that has some overgrown foliage on it.

Behind the golf cart is the entrance to a bunker.

Go through the entrance and walk down the hall to reach the room with the 3D printer in it.

You’ll find the 3D printer sitting on a desk.

How To Use The 3D Printer In Sons of the Forest

You’re going to need some printer resin before you can use the 3D printer.

The good news is that there is usually some resin in the bunker with you.

You can also find resin in storage crates scattered throughout the island.

Each recipe requires a certain amount of resin.

You can see what recipes are available by checking out the laptop next to the printer.

Once you’ve decided what recipe you want to print, press and hold “E” to get it started.

You may need to fill the printer with resin before it starts printing.

Once the item has finished, you’ll hear a little chime and see a green checkmark on the laptop.

You can take the item out of the printer and start using it.

What Items Can You Print in the 3D Printer?

The laptop holds several recipes for offensive, defensive, and utility items.

Here is a list of the items you can print with the 3D printer.

• 3D-Printed Arrows
• Flask
• Red Mask
• Grappling Hook
• Tech Mesh
• Sled

Each one requires a different amount of resin for its production.
