The remarkable success and widespread acclaim of our products and support led us to establish TH3D as a distinguished brand in its own right. With a growing portfolio of over 100 diverse products, we have become a trusted name in the 3D printing industry.

Join us on our exciting journey as we continue to redefine the boundaries of 3D printing innovation.

A message from Tim

I’ve been a tinkerer and maker since a young age. I’ve always been into computers and electronics. I started 3D printing in late 2016 as a hobby and it quickly became one of my main hobbies.

Professionally, I have over a decade of Information Technology experience from IT Support, Project Management, and Systems Administration. I am also an Eagle Scout (obtained in 2007).

I sincerely hope that my company helps make your 3D printing experience easier and smoother so you can focus more on printing instead of fighting with your printer. I wish there was a company like mine when I started out to help me get my printer up and running quickly without the hassle that comes with most sellers in this market. 

Happy Printing!

Things that are Important to Us

Our Dedicated, US Based Team

TH3D is based out of Hobart, IN. All of our team members are in the US, we do not outsource any of our positions to people outside the US.

We run a hybrid of onsite and remote employees to maximize efficiency and coverage of our customers that are all over the world. We have a dedicated team of people who only handle customer service and technical support requests.

Focus on Quality and Service

Our focus is to get our customers the best products at fair prices. We’re all makers here, and we know how frustrating getting cheap parts from China is and not getting what you wanted the first time.

Everything we carry are parts and products that we use on our in-house machines to make our lives easier. There is enough to worry about in this hobby/industry so let us help simplify your 3D printing life by ensuring you get quality parts and excellent support.

When we design products, we take the time to run them through stress testing and analysis to make sure they work and last. Unlike many vendors in the 3D printing market, we do not use our customers to test our products, we sell products that work and are free of major design flaws.

Community Outreach

We believe in giving back to the community because we would not be here without it. We put out and maintain our Firmware branch that helps users get more out of their machines at no cost to them while making the printers much safer. We also donate every month to the Marlin Firmware project.

We make honest review videos on our YouTube channel (most are machines we bought ourselves) so that you know if a machine is worth checking out or not and tutorials for the machines. 

Our customers LOVE us!

Great group of guys!

Installing TH3D firmware made it an easy experience compiling my firmware with my heavily modded 3D printers. With all the documentation and videos help guides. From maintenance to wiring and compiling firmware with vs code.

I saw Bed Cement on Tik Tok and decided to try it instead of a glue stick. And I love it ! The adhesion issues are virtually gone now! I will fully recommend this to everyone I can

Excellent Product
Some of the best ABS CF I have ever used. IMO it prints better than the 3DXtech's ABS CF.

Great product
Love this plate, especially love that it has the QR code printed on it. Haven't had any issues, if I do it typically means it's time to wash it.

I found the Unified 2 firmware to be easier than Vanilla Marlin and less confusing. I am still having problems with my CRTouch crashing into my build plate. To be fair it might be my fault when I programed the firmware file. I have a Ender3 Pro with the Creality 4.27 board with the STM32F103-RET6 processor and a Extender XLT conversion. I am still trying to figure out why my nozzle is crashing into the build plate. (CRTouch) passes the self test.

Nozzle crashing into the bed could be either a hardware issue, wiring issue, or something is not setup correctly in the firmware. We do have paid support available for $30 for one ticket.

The difference is incredible. The only issue I had is the video show the X1C install, which shows a different connection setup than is present with the P1S. There is a black tape that shows where the USB port is. Remove that to expose the light plug.

What more can I say then it is Polymaker! Use the preset for this material on the Bambu Lab X1-Carbon and slice and hit print. Next thing you know you'll have a great looking print with a great looking surface......but like all other filaments it won't magically make anyone better at 3D Printing!

I love my aftermarket Bambu Lab X1-Carbon build plates with cool designs like the PEO plates. But some filaments just do not like sticking to it. So I figured I would give this bed cement a try on the PEO build plate..... It prints on it with great adhesion and the printed surface looks as nothing was even applied to the build plate!
