Custom 3D Prints
Have a 3D file ready but no printer of your own?
Reaction Games offers a custom 3D printing service for customers across the UK. Upload your file and tell us the size, quantity, material and colour you need. We will review the project and provide a clear quote before printing begins. From one-off projects to small batches, every order is printed and prepared in our East Sussex workshop.

Printing Options
Single-colour printing
Single-colour printing is usually the simplest and most cost-effective option.
It is well suited to models, prototypes, components and pieces that will be painted or finished after printing.
Multi-colour printingChoose up to five colours from our current filament range to create a design with contrasting parts, details or finishes.
Multi-colour printing may require additional printing time, so the final cost will depend on the file and the number of colour changes involved.

3D Modelling
Do you have an idea but not a print-ready file?
We may be able to help create, adjust or prepare your 3D model for printing. Modelling work is quoted separately according to the complexity of the project.

Materials
PLA
PLA is a versatile material suited to most general 3D-printing projects, including display pieces, models, prototypes and indoor-use items.
It provides a clean finish and is available in our widest range of colours.
PETGPETG is a durable material suited to functional pieces and projects that require greater strength or resistance to heat and everyday wear.
Not sure which material to choose? Tell us how the finished print will be used and we will recommend the most appropriate option.
