From custom cookie cutters to functional prototypes, we turn your digital ideas into physical objects using our 3D printers in Indiranagar.

A quick look at our 3D printer in action. We show you the machine printing, some finished models like a spiral staircase, and a custom Paper Crane Lab keychain. This is a great technology for rapid prototyping and creating complex shapes.

This tutorial gives you a glimpse into how we go from a digital design to a physical object. We show you how to create a design in Tinkercad, send it to the 3D printer, and the final resulting keychain.

The best part of making custom cookie cutters is seeing the final results. These adorable reindeer cookies, decorated with sprinkles, were made using cutters that we 3D printed at the lab.

Here you can see the reindeer-shaped cookie cutter in action, pressing the design into the dough. Our 3D printed cutters are designed to leave a clean impression for easy and fun baking.

It's not just for cookies! One of our creative clients used the reindeer cutter to make these amazing custom-shaped pooris. It shows how versatile our 3D printed creations can be.

About this collection

3D printing with us is not just for industrial parts. We print in PLA, a biodegradable plastic, which means you will see faint layer lines on every surface. It is part of the process, not a flaw, and it is why our custom cookie cutters or prototypes have that distinct, tactile finish you cannot find in mass-produced items.

Whether you have a .stl file ready or just a napkin sketch, we help you bring your ideas into the physical world. At our Indiranagar lab, we use FDM technology to fabricate objects within a 20cm cubic build volume. This is perfect for rapid prototyping, unique home decor, or functional gadgets like our one-handed book holders. Our process involves slicing your 3D design into machine code and manually removing supports once the print is finished. Since we print with Standard PLA filament, you get strong, sturdy results that are great for functional parts. If you are new to this, do not worry about the technical details. We have guided workshops if you want to learn how to design and print your own charms or keychains, or you can simply share your requirements with us for a custom project. We prioritize accessibility and functionality over industrial-grade finishing, so expect a hands-on, maker-style approach to every print.
