How We Print

(The Tools Behind Your Ideas)

At Tidewater 3D, we use a mixture of FDM and Resin 3D Printers to bring your ideas to life, whether you need durable mechanical parts or finely detailed miniatures.

FDM Printing

(Fused Deposition Modelling)

Great For: Larger prints, functional prototypes, enclosures, and replacement components.

  • Prints in strong, affordable plastics like PLA, PETG, and ABS
  • Ideal for cost-effective, fast turnaround jobs.
  • Available in a wide range of colours and finishes.

Resin Printing

(SLA)

Great For: High-detail miniatures, organic shapes, and smooth-surfaced prototypes

  • Ultra-fine detail and smooth finish
  • Ideal for tabletop gaming, cosplay props, or intricate design elements
  • Cured for a hard finish

Material We Use

We offer a curated range of FDM filaments and resin, because the right material makes all the difference.

  • PLA: Affordable, rigid, great for general prints
  • PETG: Flexible, stronger, suitable for mechanical parts
  • ABS: Heat-resistant, best for rugged use
  • Resin: Crisp detail for miniatures, durable for functional prototypes

Not sure which one your project will need? That’s fine, we’re here to guide and advise you on the best material choice.

How Much Does 3D Printing Cost?

We believe in fair, transparent pricing – no hidden costs or confusing jargon. Every project is different, but here’s what affects the price:

What Affects The Cost

  • Size and complexity of your design
  • Material Type: PLA, resin, flexible filament, etc.
  • Print Time: Longer prints = more time on the machine
  • Finishing: Sanding, painting, or post-processing available
  • Quantity

Postage & Delivery

  • Standard UK delivery: £3.50 – £5.00 depending on size, and larger projects will cost considerably more
  • Free local collection from Grimsby
  • Local delivery available within NE Lincs – just ask

Need it Fast?

  • Due to the nature of 3D printing, we cannot always guarantee fast turnaround; however, if you do have a deadline, we’ll do our best to help.
