Kad 3D has been a top notch experience. First time ever ordering something to be 3D printed and the service from these guys has been prompt and so helpful. Best of all, they keep you up-to-date with the progress of your order without the need of checking in! I highly recommend them and will definitely keep using them for my 3D printing needs 🙂

I uploaded a file for an instant quote, which was followed up by Max via email. He was super helpful and made a real effort to check in and clarify how I wanted my model printed to make sure everything was correct. Really friendly people and the whole thing was done and ready to collect the same day.

These guys were absolutely amazing. Outstanding customer services and a great quality product. I had no idea how the whole 3D printing process worked. They guided me through it, informed me about the different options and my product is perfect. Can't recommend highly enough.

I have a customer in Australia who needed a small part printed. I live in the USA so it would have been really hard to ship such a small part making sure it wasn't lost in shipping. Kad 3D was able to print and ship the part for me which saved a ton of time for my customer. They are able to finish their build in days as opposed to the weeks it would take for a new shipment to arrive. Thank you so much!!

I wanted to try my hand at 3D printing fondant stamps, I had absolutely no idea where to start or how to achieve my desired result. From start to finish, Max helped me achieve my goals and I have now learned a new skill! This is such a great service and Max is so knowledgeable, I highly recommend Kad 3D!

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have a questions in mind?

I don’t have drawings or CAD. Can you still help?

Yes. Send the part (or fragments) or upload clear photos with a ruler. We’ll measure/scan it, rebuild production-ready CAD (STEP + STL) and include a free fit-check sample.

The clock starts once we receive your part/photos, lock scope, and take payment (weekdays, 12 pm cut-off). Simple parts: first sample from 48 h. Complex parts/assemblies: we’ll quote a clear delivery window.

  • STEP + STL files you can keep and use.
  • A free 3D-printed test sample to check fit/function.
  • Optional 2D drawings (PDF/DWG) with dimensions/tolerances.

Our Make-it-Right Guarantee covers one free revision: we adjust the CAD to the agreed dims and re-print the sample at no cost.

We agree critical dimensions up front. Typical fit-check prints hit around ±0.2–0.3 mm on common plastics; CAD is modelled to tighter nominal. We’ll confirm achievable tolerances in your quote.

Yes. We’ll reverse-engineer each component, supply CAD, and provide a plastic fit-check sample. For metal or complex assemblies, we’ll advise the best manufacturing route and timeline when quoting.

Choose what’s easiest: drop-off in Reservoir, request a courier label, Express Post, or upload photos if posting isn’t possible. We’ll confirm intake and start the 48-hour clock.

Fixed-fee for CAD + test sample, based on size, complexity and critical features—no surprises. If you proceed to production, we quote that separately.

Absolutely. NDA by default—we can sign yours or provide ours. Files are access-controlled; we retain them only to manufacture your parts and can delete on request.

We produce like-for-like replacements for parts you own and use. If a design is protected or approval is required, we’ll flag it and advise the compliant path before work begins.
