    Fused-deposition printing — melted plastic filament (PLA, PETG, ABS…) laid down layer by layer. The most common, affordable method, great for functional and everyday parts.SLA/DLP resin printing — liquid resin cured by light for ultra-smooth, high-detail parts like miniatures, jewelry, and dental models. Slower and pricier than FDM.Display pieces, art, props, cosplay, and decor where looks matter most — smooth finishes, vibrant colors, clean visible surfaces.Working parts that bear load or fit assemblies — brackets, gears, enclosures, jigs. Dimensional accuracy and strength matter more than looks.You can design or model the part from a sketch, photo, or idea — not just print a file the customer already gives you.Subtractive machining — cutting parts from solid blocks of metal, wood, or plastic for high precision and strength. Not 3D printing.Cutting flat sheet stock (acrylic, wood, leather, etc.) or etching designs and text onto surfaces with a laser.Single pieces bigger than a standard printer's bed. Most home printers build up to about 220–256 mm (9–10 in) square — large format means one-piece prints from 300×300 mm up to 500×500 mm or more on a big-bed machine, or oversized builds printed in sections and joined. Think full helmets, signage, panels, and props.
