Disclaimer

You are responsible for the quality of the design you submit to be printed. The IDEA Studio's 3D Printing team will only check your design for instability flaws.

An estimated date of completion is just an estimate. If the machine requires sudden maintenance or any issues arise, there can be a delay in printing.
