Printing

Three steps, honest timings and no hidden extras. Here's exactly what happens between your file and your front door.

Sketch of the three-step process: uploading a file, a 3D printer running, and a courier delivering a package
01

Upload your file

STL, OBJ, 3MF or STEP — or just describe the part.

02

We print

Printed and checked in our London Bridge workshop.

03

Delivered to your door

Couriered across London, or shipped UK-wide.

Typical print timings

  • Small

    Up to 100mm in any direction

    2–4 hours

    Comfortably same-day, and usually eligible for express under-4-hour delivery.

  • Medium

    100–200mm

    5–10 hours

    Same-day if approved before our early-afternoon cut-off, otherwise next day.

  • Large

    200–300mm, or multi-part assemblies

    12–30 hours

    Usually next-day. Large models genuinely cannot be rushed — we would rather say so up front.

Timings are print time only, and assume a single part at standard settings. Larger models may need next-day rather than same-day delivery.

Delivery costs

  • Standard

    UK-wide, delivered within 1-3 working days

    £3.99

  • Same-day

    Delivered within 24 hours of your order

    £7.99

  • Express — under 4 hours

    Delivered under 4 hours after your part is completed

    £14.99

Frequently asked questions

What file formats do you accept?
STL, OBJ, 3MF and STEP. STL is the safest bet. If you only have a sketch, a photo or measurements, send those instead and we'll advise.
What happens if a print fails?
We reprint it at our cost. Failures are our problem, not yours. If a failure means we'll miss a promised delivery slot, we call you the moment we know.
How do I measure my model?
Check the bounding box in your CAD or slicer software — the longest dimension in X, Y and Z. If you're modelling from a real object, calipers beat a ruler; a millimetre matters on fitted parts.
What are the size limits?
Up to 300 × 300 × 300mm as a single piece. Anything bigger we split into sections and either join them or supply them for assembly — just ask.
Can you print functional, load-bearing parts?
Yes. PETG with higher infill and reinforced walls handles brackets, jigs and housings well. Tell us how the part will be loaded and we'll recommend settings.
