Just an Idea?
No CAD file? No STL? That's what the custom design service is for. Bring a file, photo, measurement, sketch, broken-part reference, or idea — we model your part to print-ready spec and quote the job ourselves. Material, finish, and lead time come back with the quote, not after.
For a 3D file, choose Upload Your File and attach your STL, 3MF, or OBJ to the email that opens.

How it works
Every submission is reviewed before we quote, so you know what the job involves before deciding.

Share the file, photo, sketch, measurements, or just the idea.

Get a job-specific quote
Material, finish, and lead time come back together in a real quote.
Approve before production
You give the go-ahead before we print. No payment before approval.
What it means
From your idea to a print-ready model
Custom Design is the service we run when you arrive with an idea but no print-ready file. You bring the brief; we handle the geometry, the tolerances, and the print setup.
Once the model is ready, we quote the job in plain terms — material, finish, and lead time — so you see the real number before approving anything. No add-ons later, no mystery line items, no minimum order.
Built for jobs other shops won't take
Whether you're running a small business, building an invention, or putting together merch and signage — a one-off job is what we do every day.
Inventors & makers
Working prototypes, patent-ready mockups, functional test parts, and short production runs of a part you've been sketching.
Marketing & merch
Branded merch, event pieces, signage, display props, and small-batch custom goods — designed from your reference and printed in West Texas.

You approve and we print
On your approval we run the job on the shop floor in West Texas — small batch, quoted per job, none of the off-the-shelf pricing.
What to send
The brief, in plain language
You don't need a finished drawing — any combination of the items below is enough to start the conversation. Photos and sketches live in your phone? Send those.
What you want the part to do — a short written idea of the job it needs to do.
Any reference you have — sketch on paper, napkin drawing, photo, clipping, or screenshot.
Rough dimensions or sizes — at minimum, the longest side and how it sits in the space.
Quantity and use case — one-up prototype, a handful of copies, or short production run.
Deadlines, material preferences, finish, color, and any environment the part will live in (heat, weather, UV, chemicals).
