Quality (layer height)
Thinner layers take more passes → more machine time → higher price. The gap grows with the part: on a small bracket it is cents, on a tall part it is real. Shown: one PLA bracket.
Infill (density)
Hollow parts are cheaper. Strong functional parts need denser infill. Pick Light for cosmetic, Standard for everyday, Strong for load-bearing. Shown: one PLA bracket.

What every quote includes
The price you see is the price you pay
Setup, turnaround, shipping and tax are in the total before you enter a card.
A printability check before printing
Thin walls and unsupported overhangs are flagged in the quote, not discovered on the plate.
Every part checked against your model
Anything that fails QC is reprinted before it ships. If it still isn't right, call — the person who answers runs the printers.
POs and net terms for companies
Written quotes hold their pricing; net terms and ACH for qualified accounts, card at checkout for everyone else.
How your quote is calculated
- Part price = measured from your file, for your material: the plastic the printer actually lays at your infill, the print time at your layer height, the part’s surface, and the support it needs in the orientation that needs least. The more copies of a part, the lower its price per copy — that discount is inside the part price — and the per-piece fee falls with the pieces in the whole order: $1 a piece at 500, $0.20 at 10,000. STEP, 3MF and over-32 MB uploads are priced from volume and machine time instead (× 2.35), with a volume discount on the order’s total quantity.
- Line total = part price × quantity
- Subtotal = sum of line totals across every part
- After discount = subtotal − the order-wide volume discount on parts priced the second way
- After rush = post-discount × rush multiplier
- Cutting fee = $25 flat for each part larger than 340 × 320 × 340 mm (printed in two dowel-joined pieces) — once per part whatever the quantity, and never discounted or rushed
- Pre-tax = post-rush + cutting fees + $5 setup + shipping
- Minimum order floor is $30. Orders below are bumped up.
- Tax = pre-tax × 7.75% (CA sales tax)
- Grand total = pre-tax + tax
