How much does resin 3D printing cost? Our pricing, explained
Search this question and you'll find calculators, "starting at" asterisks, and forum arguments. Here's our actual answer, the same one we give on the phone.
The minimum: $29
Every job starts at $29 — yes, even the tiny thing. A print job costs setup, resin, machine time, washing, curing, support removal, and inspection whether the part is a thimble or a helmet. The minimum covers the floor of that work.
What moves the price up
Resin volume. The biggest driver. A big hollow part is often cheaper than a small solid one — we hollow parts where it doesn't compromise them, and pass that along.
Material. Standard grey is the baseline. Castable wax, clear, and tough resins cost more because they do more — cast it, see through it, drop it.
Turnaround. Standard is 2–4 days. Rush is a phone call and an honest quote — never a hidden multiplier.
What doesn't cost anything
Quotes are free and come from a person the same day. Shipping is free anywhere in the USA. File checks are free — if your part won't survive printing, we tell you before you pay, not after.
Volume work
If you're printing every week — a jewelry line, a product in development — business retainers are by inquiry — we build the plan around your volume; serious hobbyists get a $500/month priority retainer. Details on the pricing page, or just call (239) 880-2698 and ask.
