FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Where can I download the digital files of your 3D models?

Download my 3D models from MakerWorld -- follow me on MakerWorld and social media to get updates on when models are available!

If you're having trouble finding one of my models on there (that you may have seen me demo on social media), message me on MakerWorld to let me know you want to see it available!

Where can I buy your 3D prints?

I currently don't directly sell any physical 3D prints of my designs.

I offer memberships for people who want access to my 3D models and commercial licenses to sell them.

If you know someone who sells 3D prints...

Please let them know you're interested in my designs and direct them to this page.

I'd love to have them on here as an authorized seller so anyone who's interested in buying 3D prints of my designs can find ways to buy them!

What filament do you use?

I use a variety of filament from different brands.

I started out building my collection of filament with a wide range of colors from IIID Max.

How do you store and organize your 3D printing filament?

I use IKEA cabinets to store a lot of my filament.

I mostly use PLA, so I keep it separate from the rest for easy access and to avoid using the wrong spools of filament. I like keeping the nice silk PLA on the top shelf with regular PLA underneath. PETG and special filament like glow-in-the dark, water-soluble, wood, marble, TPU and ABS are stored separately when space allows.

Within each type of filament, I arrange them by rainbow order ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
