What we print

One-offs and small runs. Tell us what the part has to do and we will help you pick the right material.

Replacement parts

Broken clips, knobs, brackets and covers. If it snapped, we can often print a new one.

Prototypes

Test the fit and feel of a design before you commit. Print, adjust, print again.

Custom pieces

Mounts, organizers, gifts, signs and one-of-a-kind ideas. Bring a file or just a sketch.

How it works

Three steps. No jargon.

  1. Send a file or describe it

    Have an STL or 3MF? Send it. No file? Describe the part, add a photo and a few measurements.

  2. Get a price

    We look it over, suggest a material and send you a clear quote before anything is printed.

  3. Pick it up or have it shipped

    Collect it locally in Victoria, or we ship it to you anywhere in Canada.

The hive

A community of local makers.

We also run a local 3D print marketplace. Need a car door clip or a custom bracket? Post what you need and a maker nearby can print it for you. Have a printer? Join in and help your neighbours.
