Materials
Which plastic is right?
Tell us how the piece will be used: indoors or outside, heat, bending, handling. We'll recommend a material and confirm it in your quote.
PLA
Crisp detail and lots of colors. Great for models, displays, figures and prototypes.
PETG
Tougher and more heat-resistant. Good for functional parts, holders and clips.
TPU
Flexible and rubbery. For grips, bumpers, seals and soft covers.
Not sure?
Pick "Recommend one for me" in the form and we'll suggest the best fit.
Learn with 3D · for schools
A new dimension in learning.
Bring the lesson off the page: 15 ready catalog sets and 111 custom classroom ideas across 13 subjects. Teachers, principals and students can order one piece, a class set of 30 or a coordinated school package.
Grade bands are teaching suggestions, not toy safety certifications. Small parts can be a choking hazard; models are for teacher-supervised learning.

Questions
Let's make things clearer.
Do I need a 3D file to get started?
No. You can start with a sketch, a photo or a clear description with dimensions. We'll review whether modeling is needed and include that work in the quote.
What files can I send?
Upload one file up to 15 MB in the form: STL, 3MF, OBJ, STEP, ZIP, PDF or an image (JPG, PNG, HEIC). For bigger files or several files, paste a Google Drive or Dropbox link, or email them to info@3dnearyou.com.
How much does it cost?
Every project is quoted individually. Size, material, print time, quantity, modeling and finishing affect the price. We agree on the price before anything is printed.
How long does it take?
It depends on the design and our current schedule, so tell us your deadline. Eligible samples and prototypes ship within 3 business days after approval and deposit. Rush and same-day work may be possible for some approved files; just ask.
Can you print from architectural PDF plans?
Yes. The plans first need to be turned into a printable 3D model. Send the plans, your preferred scale and finished size, and the details that matter most.
How do I order and pay?
Send your project through the form. We email you a secure invoice: a 25% deposit starts your print, and the balance is due when your order is ready. Deposits are refundable any time before printing begins.
Is shipping really free?
Yes. Shipping is free anywhere in the U.S., with no minimum. Carrier transit time is added after production.
Are the pictures on this site finished projects?
No. The service images are concept renders that show what's possible. They are not photos of completed customer work.
