Marine hardware and tools on a workbench

Custom Parts

If it existed once, I make it again.

Broken fitting, discontinued handle, obsolete hardware, or a part that never existed. Send a photo, sketch, broken original, or measurements.

How It Works

Photo. Model. Print. Fit.

1

Send what you have

A photo, sketch, broken part, measurements, CAD file, or clear description is enough to start.

2

I design it

The part is modeled for the vessel, the load, and the environment before it gets printed.

3

It gets delivered

The part is printed, checked, shipped, or installed directly when I am deployed on site.

Materials

The material matches the job.

ASA

Deck hardware, cockpit parts, exterior fittings, and UV-exposed surfaces.

PETG-CF

Chemical-resistant parts, engine-room fittings, and structural interior use.

PA-CF

High-load, high-vibration, high-temperature parts where failure matters.

Polycarbonate

Impact-resistant guards, covers, housings, and protective parts.

Cherbourg harbour at night

Example

The Cherbourg machine shop had not started.

Osprey's mainsail track gate fell overboard in Cherbourg. The local machine shop quoted over $800 and a multi-week wait. The Core One L printed the replacement in 8 hours.

Testimonials

The result matters.

If I had a 3D printer, you'd take a nap and wake up to the part done.

We were delighted and relieved to have you aboard Ken. Your extensive knowledge of the vessel was essential to getting us to Fastnet, and I know all of the others felt the same way as I about your invaluable assistance. Fair winds my friend.
