“I got into 3d printing thinking it would be a fairly straightforward process…

and sometimes, it is…”

-LEE PRICE, THE VIRTUAL BLACKSMITH

You take your file, run it through software and boom you have made a thing from seemingly nothing.

Many times, though, 3d printing is about pulling at the smallest threads of an idea and making something you can hold in your hands.

I hope to show people that 3d printing can solve problems as well as make cool things and on the best days do both at the same time.

As The Virtual BlackSmith, everything I create falls into one of three categories…

Whether the issue is turning a flat 2D logo into an object that is unique but still maintains your brand…

Designing an interesting centerpiece for your event that isn’t readily available on amazon…

…or even designing a silverware holder that snugly fits that one weird drawer AND holds your non standardized silverware.”
