About this gig

The plastic part broke and the manufacturer doesn't sell it anymore, or wants $80 for it. Mail it to me (or send good photos with measurements) and I'll model it, fix the weak spot that made it fail, and ship you replacements.


I run Catalyst R&D in Dallas, TX. Years of aerospace and energy sector project work, which means the replacement isn't just the same shape: it's the same shape with the failure mode designed out. Material matched to the job: PETG for general duty, ABS for heat and outdoors, TPU for flex, carbon-fiber composites for stiffness.


How it works:

1. Message me photos of the part before ordering. I'll confirm it's printable and quote turnaround

2. Mail the part (US address provided) or send dimensioned photos

3. I model, reinforce, print, test-fit against your description, and ship


Good fits: appliance knobs, brackets, latches, equipment housings, automotive interior clips, discontinued machine guards, RV and boat hardware, farm equipment parts.

I run Catalyst R&D, a one-operator shop in Texas that takes projects from napkin sketch to validated part in days, not weeks. Aerospace and energy sector background, mechanical and electrical training, with in-house machines for parametric 3D printing, laser cutting, and welding fabrication. When a job sits in the gap between "too weird for a contract manufacturer" and "too much for a hobbyist," it fits here. You talk to the person running the machine. No account managers, no handoffs, no lead time burned on quoting.
