Abstract
A method for manufacturing a three-dimensional shaped object is a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional shaped object by laminating a shaping layer. The method includes a selection step of selecting a fiber material corresponding to a thickness of the shaping layer from a plurality of types of fiber materials having different fiber diameters, and a shaping step of forming the shaping layer by discharging a shaping material that includes the fiber material selected in the selection step from a nozzle opening.
