3D Printer services

[Kruncher]

Morning all,

I read a thread awhile back (that I can't find now) where the DIYer used a 3D printer service to print some parts for his build.

I get so distracted with all the great threads ... anyone ever use a 3D printer service that you'd recommend?

Thanks!

PS I'm converting my sailboat to a composting head, and I need to increase the size of the "shelf" the current Marine head sits atop. Sorry, I dropped this post in this thread!

Proto Lab, Xometry, and Shapeways are a few options. I've used Shapeways for a couple personal projects before I purchased a 3d printer. My company uses Xometry and Proto Labs from time to time.

I've used Forecast3d in Carlsbad, CA. After shopping around including China, they had the best price for 1 to 2 small pieces. Not sure about shipping prices, I did will call.

Depending on size, jlcpcb.com could be affordable, too.
