So the model under which we are operating is one in which the "buyer" realizes they don't need the professional quality printed model, but rather could benefit more by the competitive pricing opportunities offered by hobby/freelance Printers. I course this isn't the broad, general market, but a market (we hope) nonetheless.
Anybody that signs up as a Printer is currently automatically being awarded a project by us and getting paid by us to do it. Join us and provide criticism an feedback. This is just as much for the "Printers" as it is the "Buyers" and we need your help to make it better.

Oh the Quickparts.com model. Middle man owns no machines but sends the work to a select group of machine owners and operators. Worth a.shot in the consumer market. This has been in the professional market for quite a.while and works well.

We are based in the US. However, our goal is to have both a domestic presence as well as international. It would be in both yours and the buyers best interest to both be in the UK simply for shipping purposes. As the community grows, more users outside of the US will hopefully join thus being to your benefit.

We hope you will join and be patient with us as our community grows. We are set to launch our first marketing campaign next Thursday (11/14).

In the meantime, let us know what you like about the site or where it's lacking. All feedback and criticism is welcome. Thanks for checking us out.

Where are you based? Would your network reach internationally?

I am a freelance designer based in the UK and am very interested in offering my design services and 3D printing services

It's time you start printing models for others, and getting paid in the process. Right now, we are in the process of attaining freelance printers so that when we start mass marketing, we have a community of printers (as yourself) to provide services.

solidmakes.com is an outsourcing marketplace allowing freelance 3D printers to offer their services to those looking to have 3D models manufactured. By allowing Users and Freelance Printers to connect and interact, you get exactly what you are looking for, at a very competitive price. Entrepreneur working on your prototype? Hobbyist building your next creation? Need more personalized services? Let's get started...

Don't forget to check out our Marketplace(store.solidmakes.com), where you can print your own models, jazz them up, and sell them to the public. We aren't asking for you design and printing ourselves, but instead allowing you to have full control.
