People nearby can see what machine and materials you have, then send a private request through 3DPO. Listing is free, 3DPO takes no commission, and you can remove yourself whenever you like.
List my printer — it takes a few minutesSearch results are organised around distance, so somebody looking locally can discover you. A listing creates that possibility; it does not promise a volume of work.
Your machine, build volume, materials and colours appear on the card, helping people check whether you may be a fit before they contact you.
It is never published or handed over. Visitors confirm their email before 3DPO forwards a request, and you decide whether to reply.
Material weight is only one part of a print. Two parts that use similar amounts of filament can occupy the machine for very different lengths of time.
How you price is entirely up to you; 3DPO does not set, collect or see the payment. Just account for both material and machine time before agreeing a price.
There is no guarantee. 3DPO is new and coverage is thin in many cities. A listing simply makes it possible for somebody searching nearby to find and contact you.
Your number is never published. A visitor must provide a name, describe the job, pass a security check and confirm their email before 3DPO forwards anything to you. Each listing also has an hourly request cap.
Say no. There's no acceptance rate, no rating that drops, nothing to defend. It's a directory — you're a person with a printer, not a supplier under contract.
3DPO does not require business details to create a listing and does not handle payments. You are responsible for any tax, business or local requirements that apply to your own activity.
For now, keep one listing and put your main machine in the printer field. Mention other machines in the notes shown on your card. If you enter a phone number already attached to a listing, 3DPO sends you that listing's private link instead of creating a duplicate.
One person, building it in the open, with his own printer as one of the listings. If something's broken or wrong, replying to any 3DPO email reaches a real inbox.
Add your area, machine, materials and reply email, then open the confirmation link to publish the listing.
