3D design and modelling

No model, no problem. We turn a sketch, a photo or a broken original into a printable file, and the file is yours.

  • ✓ Works from sketches, photos, drawings or the broken original
  • ✓ Render sent for approval before anything is printed
  • ✓ You own the resulting file outright
  • ✓ Designed for printing, not just modelled and hoped for

From an idea to a printable file

Plenty of people know exactly what they need and have no way to describe it as a 3D model. That is a solvable problem, not a reason to give up on the part.

Send whatever you have. A sketch on paper with a few measurements. A photo of the thing that broke. An old technical drawing. The original component in pieces. We measure what we can, model it properly, and send you a render to approve before any filament is spent.

Designed to print, not just modelled

There is a difference between a model that is geometrically correct and a model that prints well. Wall thicknesses that survive handling, holes sized to come out accurate rather than nominal, seams placed where a split will not show, features oriented so layers run across the load.

We design with those constraints in from the start, which is why parts that come out of this process fit and last rather than merely existing.

The file is yours

When the work completes you receive the STEP and the STL. You own them outright. Take them elsewhere, print them yourself, hand them to a manufacturer. We would rather earn the print work by being good at it than by holding your design.

Frequently asked

Do I own the file you create?
Yes, outright. You receive the STEP and STL when the job completes and you are free to have it printed anywhere, by anyone, forever. We do not hold your design hostage to keep your print work.
Can you copy a part that is no longer made?
Usually. Send the original, or the pieces if it has broken, along with any dimensions that matter. We measure, model, and send a render to approve before printing. We cannot reproduce parts that are still under active patent or trademark protection.
