About Makerparts
David was a true maker at heart. From a young age, he was captivated by technology, tirelessly tinkering with computers and building gadgets.
The thrill of transforming an idea into something tangible ignited his passion for creation.
When 3D printing began to gain traction in the early 2010s, David, an engineer, saw an exciting new world open in front of him.
However, his enthusiasm quickly turned to frustration as he found how unaffordable it was to buy a 3D printer back then.
"There's got to be a better way," he thought. "I should build one myself."
The journey was not easy; it took a lot of researching, contacting dozens of suppliers worldwide, and learning by trial and error.
But at the end, after more than 7 prototypes, there it was: a fully working 3D printer.
That was the spark that turned a passion into MakerParts 3D.
At MakerParts 3D, David's mission is clear: to make 3D printing accessible for everyone, from seasoned experts to complete beginners. He curated an extensive, high-quality catalog of parts, supplies and accessories sourced from trusted manufacturers from all over the world.
"My goal was to empower people to bring their visions to life - whether it's to build a printer, upgrade it, or get the supplies needed to repair or print"
As word spread through the maker community, David was amazed as MakerParts 3D attracted dedicated enthusiasts, from hobbyists to small business owners leveraging the technology.
Now, more that a decade later, MakerParts 3D stands as a testament to perseverance, creativity and community.
What began as one man's dream has blossomed into an amazing team and a thriving hub that empowers makers across three continents to bring their ideas to life.
"At the end of the day, 3D printing isn't just about technology, parts and components" David reflects. "It's about the joy of creating and the boundless potential of human imagination.
That's what MakerParts 3D embodies — and that inspiration drives us every day."
