Services

3D printing for one-off parts, short runs and display models. Every job is quoted on its own, based on what it takes to make.

Services in detail

Functional parts

Everyday hardware that has to work: brackets, clips, hooks, knobs, cable guides, enclosures, jigs and gears.

Good for
Parts under light to moderate load, organizers, mounts and workshop aids.
Send
A model file, or a drawing with the measurements that matter, such as hole spacing and wall thickness.

Replacement parts

A broken latch, a lost knob, a cracked clip on something that otherwise works. Many small plastic parts can be measured, modeled and reprinted.

Good for
Discontinued or hard-to-find plastic parts on furniture, appliances, toys and tools.
Send
Clear photos of the broken piece next to a ruler, plus its key measurements. Mention what it attaches to.

Prototypes and short runs

Physical versions of a design you're developing, so you can check size, fit and feel. When a design is settled, a few copies can be printed together.

Good for
Product ideas, fit tests, mockups and small batches.
Send
Your model file and a note about what you're testing, so the settings match the goal.

Models, figures and gifts

Miniatures, display pieces, cosplay parts, desk objects and one-off gifts, printed for surface detail instead of strength.

Good for
Tabletop pieces, decorations, props and personal projects.
Send
The file and where it came from. We print designs you made or are licensed to print.

Design help

If you know what you need but have no file, we can help build a printable model from a sketch, measurements or photos.

Good for
Simple mechanical shapes, replacement parts and small custom objects.
Send
A sketch, the measurements you're sure of, and any limits such as maximum size.

Materials

These are common filament choices and what each is good at. Material and color availability is confirmed in your quote.

How pricing works

There's no fixed price list, because two prints of the same size can take very different amounts of time and material. Each quote is built from four things.

  • Material

    How much filament the part uses, including supports.

  • Print time

    Larger parts, finer layers and denser infill all take longer on the printer.

  • Design work

    Only when you need a model drawn or an existing file changed.

  • Finishing

    Extra cleanup such as sanding, if you ask for it.

When printing isn't the right call

Desktop 3D printing is a poor choice for parts that carry safety-critical loads, such as car, climbing or medical equipment, and for parts that need food-safe certification. Very large flat panels and high volumes are usually cheaper made another way.

If your part falls into one of these, we'll say so before quoting.
