Need Something Bigger?

If your design exceeds the maximum dimensions of 256 x 256 x 256 mm³, don’t worry! Large designs can often be split into multiple parts and assembled after printing. We’ll work with you to ensure your project is a success.

Tips for Optimal Printing

  • Orientation Matters: Placing objects diagonally can maximize the printable size.

  • Batch Printing: We can print multiple small items in one go for efficiency.

  • Part Splitting: Larger models can be split into sections for assembly.
