This isn't a shop with twenty materials on tap — it's one well-tuned FDM printer running a focused set of filaments. If your part needs something outside this list, I'll say so upfront.
| Material | Good for | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | Visual prototypes, props, low-stress parts | Brittle under load, not heat-resistant |
| PETG | General-purpose functional parts | My default for most "everyday object" jobs |
| ABS | Parts that'll see heat or impact | Needs an enclosed bed setup — slightly longer lead time |
| TPU (flexible) | Gaskets, grips, bumpers, snap-fit parts | Slower print speed, limited geometry |
| Max build volume | 350 × 350 × 350 mm |
| Layer height range | 0.10 – 0.28 mm |
| Typical tolerance | ± 0.2 mm, confirmed per part on request |
| Color options | Limited to filament on hand — ask before assuming a specific color |
Bigger than this build volume? I can split a part into sections that bolt or glue together — tell me the full size and I'll work out a plan.
Every part gets supports removed and edges cleaned before it's checked or shipped.
Surface smoothing for parts that'll be painted or handled often.
Threaded inserts pressed in for parts that need to bolt to something repeatedly.
Send me what it's for and how it'll be used — I'll recommend the right one.
