What is 3D printing?

3D printing – ordering guide
Rule no. 1 – in principle anything can be made, but it has a cost; you just need to find out the best way to make what you want.
3D printing is a modern production method in which objects are built layer by layer, with a high level of customisation.
Each piece is made individually, which means time and cost vary with complexity.
What we make
We create custom products optimised for quality and efficiency:
✔ Keychains, accessories and decorative objects
✔ Custom parts (name, logo, your own design)
✔ Functional objects (stands, cases, adapters)
We focus on clean, well-thought-out design and quality results.
How colours affect price and time
The number of colours is one of the most important factors:
1 colour – most efficient (fast and affordable)
2–4 colours – a balance between design and cost
5–8 colours – significantly more time
8+ colours – very complex projects, high cost and long time
🔧 Why?
At every colour change, the printer:
stops
changes the material
purges residual material (1–2 g)
Note that each layer can have several colour changes (directly influenced by the total number of colours), multiplied by those grams of residual material.
This process adds extra time and material, even if the object is small.
Limitations (important)
To keep a high standard and reasonable lead times:
We do not accept models with an excessive number of colours for their size
We do not take on projects with extremely long print times
Very detailed or unoptimised models may be refused or adjusted
3D printing is not meant for large-scale mass production. Larger numbers of replicas are of course possible, but not on the scale of a factory.
💡 A well-thought-out design = a faster, cheaper and better product.
Lead time
Time varies with complexity:
Simple: a few hours
Medium: 1–2 days
Complex: a few days
Projects that exceed a reasonable production time will not be accepted.
Why do prices differ?
Price is not determined by size alone, but by:
actual print time
number of colours
material used
design complexity
A small object can cost more than a large one if it is multicoloured or very detailed.
