On Demand Printing

On Demand Printing:

If you’re looking to get a more refined piece than what we can do in the Makerspace, especially in later end prototyping and/or need specialized parts or materials we cannot use, we suggest investing a print on demand service. Depending on the complexity of your work and materials needed, it may be costly. However, many services allow you to get a quote before committing.

All of the sites listed are US-based/have US branches for the ease of price & shipping.

Print Goods (Cards, Stickers, Posters):
  • Moo has great quality prints and wide array of items to print on.
  • Vistaprint Is another great alternative!
  • Canva has a free version and a paid subscription. It is an all-in-one design and print on demand service.

  • Voodoo Manufacturing is also NYC-based, but only print in plastic.
  • Fictiv is California based, and provides not just 3D printing, but injection molds, urethane casting and CNC machining.
