About Pricing
As an enthusiast of 3D printing, I approach this craft as a beloved hobby driven by a deep passion for creativity and innovation. In line with my commitment to transparency and fairness, I adhere to a pricing model that reflects only the direct costs incurred during the printing process. This includes the cost of materials, expenses related to failures or reprints, and crucially, the cost of electricity consumed.
Living in the UK, where energy costs are notably high, I’m acutely aware of the substantial electricity consumption involved in 3D printing. Even for small prints, the process typically spans at least four hours, during which time both the bed and nozzle must be heated. This intensive energy usage can quickly add up, contributing significantly to the overall cost of production.
By factoring in these electricity costs along with material expenses and potential failures, I ensure that my pricing accurately reflects the true cost of each print. While my primary aim is not profit, but rather to cover these tangible expenses, I believe it’s essential to provide transparent pricing that reflects the realities of 3D printing in the UK. This approach underscores my dedication to offering accessible and affordable 3D printing services while maintaining the integrity of my craft and supporting fellow enthusiasts in our vibrant community.

Information on Whiskers (3d printing waste) removal
At oo3dmodels, we are committed to delivering the highest quality 3D printed models to our customers. We strive to ensure that each product meets our strict quality standards before it leaves our facility. However, it is important to note that due to the nature of 3D printing, some models may occasionally have whiskers present.
Whiskers are thin strands of filament that can sometimes occur during the printing process. While we make every effort to remove all whiskers from our models, there may be instances where a few whiskers remain.
We recommend that customers carefully inspect their 3D printed models upon receipt. If any whiskers are found, they can be easily removed using a sharp knife or similar tool. Please exercise caution when removing whiskers to avoid damaging the surface of the model.
Please rest assured that the presence of whiskers does not affect the structural integrity or overall quality of the product. We are dedicated to providing you with the best possible experience, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the presence of whiskers on your model.
If you have any questions or concerns about whiskers on your 3D printed model, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team. We are here to assist you and ensure your complete satisfaction with your purchase.
