  • Prusa i3 MK3S printers making rapid prototypes

    3D Printing

    We have multiple Prusa I3 MK3S printers at our disposal and a wide range of filaments. Slicing and support removal is included with the service. Print settings, model editing, assembly, and post processing finishes can be requested as needed.

    Refer to the quote sheet provided on the 3D Printing RFQ page for a comprehensive list of filaments provided, as well as an estimate on the cost.

    Printer specs:

    • 250x210x210mm build space

    • Nozzles sizes: 0.4mm, 0.25mm, 0.4mm (hardened steel)

    • Layer height: 0.1mm to 0.3mm

    • Supported filament: PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, composites (woodfill, etc.)

  • Cosplay commission for a anime/manga character

    Project Freelancing

    This service exists to help bring new ideas to life. If a project requires multiple machined and/or printed parts or requires our team to design parts, opening a project file with us is the best option. The information you provide will give us the context we need to ensure the project is properly handled.

    This option is best for smaller, independent creators looking to bring their idea to life or to strike up a low-stakes partnership with our machine shop.

    Our team has a wide variety of skills we have employed in previous projects to great success. Please refer to the list below for a non-exhaustive list of skills we can employ.

  • Low volume production run for an engineering startup

    Engineering Consulting

    Our team is available for short-term design advice and long-term projects. While this option is not inherently different from our Project Freelancing service, the context is what matters. Our consulting service pertains moreso to technical projects, and the results of which can be less materially tangible depending on the scenario. For example, we can give guidance on how to machine parts or how to optimize processes while also prototyping and refining designs.

    In short, Project Freelancing focuses on creating something new, while Engineering and Design Consulting emphasizes troubleshooting, R&D, advising, and interfacing with an already existing project.
