 one else has?

You can choose a style, choose a finish and enter your initials and we will 3D print them in bronze or stainless steel.

One important thing: all our metal items take 21 working days from the day of your order until they are delivered to you. So please take this into account when giving one as a gift.   

Kind regards,

Joris Peels

+ Mechanical parts tutorials & design rules

We noticed that you, our community wanted to make more complex and more sophisticated mechanical items. Because of this we did testing and research in order to develop mechanical parts tutorials for you. 

The first helps you understand the 3D printing process and look more closely at material properties. The second looks at how the Whoosh was engineered. The third one is even more special and contains design rules and accuracy tests. 

We are amazed with what you guys have shown us so far and armed with this information we know that you will be able to amaze us for months to come.
