Resin and FDM, done right.
Structural parts, jigs, props, miniatures, and laser-mountable bases. We’ve been printing long enough to know which process belongs on which problem, and patient enough to pick the slower one when it matters.
Fifteen-plus years, process first.
Jim has been teaching and printing for the better part of two decades — including a five-year stint as a moderator on the 3D-printing Stack Exchange, helping people diagnose print failures, material choices, and setup issues. None of that makes a better part on its own; it just gives us a careful eye for the risks before a print ever reaches your hands.
We’ll tell you if your part wants resin or filament, where supports are going to scar, and whether the wall thickness you drew is going to survive the use case. If a different process — machining, casting, laser — suits the job better, we’ll say so.
What’s on the floor today.
- Formlabs resin printer— detail parts, dental-grade surface, translucent or tough resins depending on the job.
- Bambu Lab H2D— multi-colour, multi-material workhorse for larger functional parts and finished pieces that don’t want to be painted.
- Bambu Lab X1C— enclosed carbon-ready FDM for engineering-grade filaments and the occasional production run.
The lineup changes as hardware improves — ask what we’re running right now if material choice is critical to your job.
Priced by material.
We quote print work by the things that actually shape the job: material, machine time, setup, design review, and finishing. Simple parts stay simple; specialty resin, tight tolerances, or multi-day runs get priced with the care they need.
Cleaning, curing, and basic sanding are included on every print. Finishing beyond the basics (paint, threaded inserts, assembly) is its own line item in the quote.
Print inquiry.
If you have an STL or STEP, reference it in your summary — we’ll reply with instructions for sending the file. Reference photos, dimensions, and the job the part has to do all help us quote faster.
