CAD design and 3D modelling service in Brisbane

No 3D file? That’s where many of our best projects start. Our 3D modelling service in Brisbane models from sketches, photos, measurements or the physical part itself — then prints from the model we made, or hands you the file.

How design jobs run

  1. Tell us the idea — photos, sketches, a broken part, or just the problem.
  2. We scope it and quote the design work before any printing, so you always know the full picture. Design rates are on our prices page.
  3. Modelling and review — you approve the model before a printer ever starts. For part replication, the modelling stage typically takes about two weeks.
  4. Printing is quoted once the model is final. Upload your files whenever you have them.

Mechanical engineering

A mechanical engineer on the team handles tolerances, fits, material selection and design for functional parts — the same person who checks our engineering prototypes.

3D modelling

Our modellers cover mechanical and organic shapes, including a scanning and reverse-engineering specialist with years of civil-construction experience capturing structures digitally.

3D scanning

Scanning suits larger objects and organic shapes; scans need careful digital clean-up before they're printable. We're upfront about when scanning helps and when measuring by hand is better.

Send us the idea, we'll scope the model

Photos, sketches or a broken part are enough to start. Design is quoted first, printing once the model is approved.

What we model

Three kinds of job make up most of our design work. For larger projects we extend the team with a trusted network of freelance modellers and drafters.

Parts that only exist as a sketch

Brackets, housings, fixtures and products modelled from your drawings, measurements or a description of the problem, ready for our engineering prototype process.

Broken or discontinued parts

Measured, scanned where it helps, and rebuilt digitally so they can be reprinted anytime — the workflow behind our replacement parts service.

Print-ready refinement

You already have a model but it won't print: wall thickness, overhangs, splitting for size, connectors. We fix the file and tell you what changed.

Bring your design to life

Tell us what you're trying to make. We'll say what it takes to model it, quote the design work, and print it when you're happy with the model.

Design and modelling questions

Yes, in that order. Design is scoped and quoted first, by the hour, and printing is quoted once the model is final — so you always know the full picture before committing to either.

Small mechanical parts can be a few days. Part replication, where we measure or scan the original and rebuild it digitally, typically takes about two weeks including your review of the model.

Yes. Whether you print with us or not, the model we make for you is yours, and once a part is modelled it can be reprinted anytime without repeating the design work.
