Custom Tools & Parts

Functional parts, built to spec.

Replacement cogs, washers, brackets, fixtures, and prototypes. Send a broken part, a measurement, or a CAD file and we'll reproduce or improve it.

The part that broke didn't come with a replacement plan. Nobody warned me the cog would wear out, that the bracket would finally give, or that the company that made the original had closed down years before I'd ever need another one.

Not everything broken is sentimental. Sometimes it's just a washer, a clip, a fitting — something ordinary that needs replacing so an ordinary day can keep going.

But sometimes it's the cog from a grandfather's clock, or a fixture that's held a family kitchen together since before I was born. Losing the object can feel like losing a little of what it was attached to. So we reprint the part, and the memory stays put.

Precision build

Precision Mini Bench Vise

Standard parts — common sizes of cogs, washers, and clips, kept in stock and ready to ship. This dual-jaw mini vise, printed with interlocking hard and soft components, is a good example: tight threads, smooth actuation, zero play.

Custom parts — send your measurements, a photo of the broken original, or a CAD file, and we'll print a matching or improved replacement.

Standard stock

Graduated Bearing Set

Eight radial bearings sized from a large drive bearing down to a hairline-small fit — printed and finished so each one spins true and seats without play, whatever the machine.

Custom commission
