Material Selection Guide

Choosing the right material for your part

How fast can you deliver?

The production and dispatch date is confirmed on your quote from the actual job.

Do I need a 3D model?

No. Send photos or the broken part and we'll model it — that's how the garage-door cogs and wheelie-bin hinges get done.

What if the part doesn't fit?

Call us on 021 891 0476. We'd rather look at the part on our floor than argue over email.

What's the largest part you can make?

Send the file — STL, OBJ or STEP — and the quote will tell you. Big parts can often be printed in sections and joined.

Can I visit or collect?

Yes. We're at 6-8 Perfecta Road, Paarden Eiland, Cape Town. Mon–Fri 8:00–16:30, Saturdays by appointment.
