How it works: tell us what you need, makers send quotes, you pick one. We hold your payment until it is delivered.
What sets the price
Size and print time come first. A bigger part uses more material and keeps a printer busy for longer, and machine time is most of what you pay for.
Material is next. PLA and PETG are the cheapest; ABS, nylon, TPU and resin cost more, and carbon-fiber or metal-filled filaments more again.
Then quality and finishing: finer layers, solid infill, supports that need cleaning up, sanding or paint all add time.
Shipping is the last piece. It depends on the size of the box and how far the maker is from you.
How to keep it down
Ask for PLA or PETG unless the part needs heat, flex or chemical resistance. Lower infill is fine for parts that are not under load.
Put several parts in one job instead of separate orders. Every job has a minimum (below), so small parts cost less together.
Get more than one quote. Makers price their own machines and time, so the same file can be quoted quite differently.
How pricing works here
The range you see after uploading is an estimate from your file. The price you pay is a quote a maker sends for your part, and you choose which quote to accept.
You pay at checkout when you accept a quote. We hold the money until your print is delivered, and the maker is paid after that.

Questions
Why do quotes for the same file differ?
Each maker prices their own machine time, material and finishing, and shipping depends on where they are. Compare them side by side and pick the one that fits.
How much does 3D printing cost?
Up to mug size: $15–$32 to start. One part is fine. Upload your model, or tell us roughly how big the part is, and you get a starting price range right away, no account needed. Verified makers then each send a quote for your part, so the final price comes from a maker, not a guess. You pay at checkout when you accept one, and we hold the money until your print is delivered.
What file formats can I upload?
STL, OBJ, 3MF and STEP files. Drag and drop your model and it is analyzed in your browser to estimate print volume and a starting price.
Do I need an account to get quotes?
No. You can upload a file or describe the part and see a starting price without signing up. You only create an account when you are ready to get quotes from makers and place an order.
Is there a minimum order?
No. One part is fine. Every job has a $15 minimum, so even a tiny part is quoted at $15 or more. No setup fees.
When do I pay, and is it safe?
You pay at checkout when you accept a quote, and we hold the money until your print is delivered. The maker is paid only after that.
What materials can I print in?
Common options include PLA, PETG, ABS, resin, nylon and TPU. Makers list the materials they support, and you can choose the right one for strength, detail or flexibility.
