Frequently asked questions

How much does 3d printing cost?

Is 3D Printing cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Fairbanks.
How many quotes should I get for 3d printing?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Local providers in Fairbanks can confirm how that applies to your area.
