Tell us

Send us your STL, your sketch, or just an idea. Fill out the quote form and we will come back to you with a line-item quote.

02 /04

We design

Need CAD work? We model your idea, share the preview, and refine it together until it is right.

You approve

Review the final design and the quote. We confirm materials, colors, and cost with you before any print starts, and anything that would change the number gets raised in advance.

Print + deliver

We print it on our farm, finish it, and get it to you. Meet at most public places in Stanislaus County, deliver to your home or office in Stanislaus County, or ship via USPS at going rates. Easy peasy.

Proof Is In The Pudding

Featured work from the farm.

A handful of pieces we like showing off. Some of these have been around a while. For what has actually come off the printers lately, head to the gallery.

See Recent Work

Fair warning on our photos. We stay busy, so a project usually wraps and we are on to the next one before anybody thinks to grab a camera. That means the gallery and our social accounts run behind what is actually coming off the printers, and some of these pictures have some age on them. If you want to see whether we have done something like your project, just ask us on the quote form and we will tell you straight.

Customer Feedback

What our customers say.

Real reviews from real people in the Central Valley. We treat every project like it's our own.

Absolutely incredible work from Cuddy and WestSide 3D! I needed a project done ASAP for a school art project and it was done very quickly at a high quality. Cuddy was very helpful, communicative, and had a great turn around time. If I am ever in need of a project in the future I would definitely purchase again!

Great company with exceptional service. Saved me when I needed my final project printed for a class. They got back to me very quickly after I sent in my inquiry, and were very helpful through every step of the process. Messages and emails were responded to very quickly and professionally, updates with pictures were given during the printing process, and they were incredibly flexible to be able to get me my print in time. Would definitely recommend!

Incredible work! The 3D-printed dragon and squid are fun, detailed, and beautifully made. Super fast turnaround and delivery too. 10/10! Highly recommend you check them out! We also got the advent calendar and cannot wait to see what surprises are waiting for us each day.

Very happy with their cad services and the quality my prints turned out, I needed a part re-created and customized and printed in bulk, full communication and updates the entire time. I made a great choice going with them, they are busy and my project moved a little slow, but the end result was worth it, the price was fair and out of all the local places I checked they sounded the most experienced.

Common Questions

Got questions?

Common things customers ask. Don't see what you're looking for? Send us a message through the contact form and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

All FAQs
What materials do you use?
PLA, PLA+, PETG, and TPU. PLA is great for most decorative pieces, PLA+ is tougher for items that get handled, PETG is for outdoor or higher-temperature pieces, and TPU is flexible for grips and gaskets. We do not print in ABS.
How long will my project take?
It depends on design complexity, the current queue, and how many rounds the design takes. We give a realistic estimate when we send the quote. We don't promise specific turnarounds because rushing is when prints fail.
What size prints can you make?
Most household and personal items fit comfortably on a single print run. For larger pieces, we print in clean sections and assemble them. If you have an unusually large project, send us a quote and we'll see what we can do.
Is your gallery current?
Not always, and we would rather say so. We are usually heads-down on the next project, so photos get taken when there is a spare minute. The gallery and our social accounts run behind the actual work. If you want to know whether we have handled something like your project, ask on the quote form.
Do you ship?
Yes · anywhere USPS goes. Most orders ship Priority Mail with tracking. For local handoff in Stanislaus County, we meet at most public places (cafes, parks, parking lots) at a time that works for you.
