What Do You Need to Get Started?
You don't need technical skills or special files. Just an idea.
Option 1: Photos
Have a broken part? Take a photo. Want something like a product you saw? Snap a picture. Photos help makers understand exactly what you need.
Option 2: Description
No photos? Just describe what you want. Include dimensions, purpose, and any specific requirements. Makers will ask clarifying questions if needed.
Option 3: 3D File
Already have an STL, OBJ, or 3MF file? Perfect! Upload it directly and makers can give you accurate quotes right away.

Common Questions
How do I get something 3D printed if I don't have a printer?
Just use a printing service like ours. Describe what you need (photos help!), and makers with printers will quote your project. No equipment or technical knowledge needed on your end.
Do I need special software or files?
No. While having a 3D file (STL, OBJ, etc.) speeds things up, many makers offer design services. Just describe or photograph what you need and they can create the digital model for you.
How much will it cost?
It depends on size and complexity. Small items are $10-$25, average projects $30-$75, and larger prints $100+. The best way to know is to post your project and get real quotes from makers.
How long does it take?
Most orders are completed in 5-10 days including printing and shipping. Rush orders can be done faster. Each maker includes their estimated timeline in their quote.
What if I'm not happy with the result?
Your payment is held securely until you confirm satisfaction. If there's an issue, work with your maker to resolve it or request platform support. We're here to help.
