How It All Started

Hi! I'm Koby — an IT professional by day and a 3D printing enthusiast by night, based in the Atlanta, GA area. Filament Foundry is where those two worlds collide: a love of technology meeting a lifelong passion for creating things you can actually hold in your hands.

I've been in the 3D printing hobby for about five years now. It started casually — printing the odd knick-knack, a functional part here and there, maybe a cosplay prop when the mood struck — but the more I learned, the more I wanted to push what was possible. The hobby has a way of doing that to you.

What keeps me coming back is the combination of creative and technical challenge. Every print is a small engineering problem: the right material, the right settings, the right supports. Get it all dialled in and something genuinely beautiful comes off the build plate. I have a lifelong love of Sci-Fi — Star Wars especially — so it was never a stretch to start filling the shelves with models from the universes I grew up loving.

Filament Foundry is the natural next step — a chance to share that passion with others at local craft markets. Whether you're after a piece for your shelf, a gift for someone who's impossible to shop for, or something completely custom, I'd love to make it for you.

How It's Made

From digital file to physical object — three essential steps.

01

Design

Every model starts as a 3D file — sourced from talented designers, or modelled from scratch for custom requests.

02

Print

Files are sliced and sent to the printer. Layer by layer, the model takes shape over hours of carefully tuned printing.

03

Finish

Supports are removed, surfaces are sanded, and each piece is inspected for quality before it's ready to go home with you.

Materials

We work with a range of filament types to match the look, feel, and durability each project needs.

🌿

PLA

In Stock

Our go-to for most prints. Biodegradable, excellent detail, and available in a wide range of colours — from natural tones to vivid brights.

🔩

ABS

In Stock

Stronger and more heat-resistant than PLA. A solid choice for functional parts or pieces that need to stand up to a bit more wear and tear.

💧

PETG

Coming Soon

Combines the ease of PLA with better durability and flexibility — great for models that need a little more resilience or will see outdoor use.

Specialty PLA

In Stock

Eye-catching filaments with a twist. Current favourite: Chameleon PLA — a deep emerald that shifts to near-black as the viewing angle changes. More specialty options are on the way.

Equipment

🖨️

Bambu Lab H2D

High-performance FDM printer delivering fast, precise prints with excellent detail — the workhorse behind every model in the gallery.

💻

Bambu Studio

Slicing software used to prepare every model — dialling in layer heights, supports, and print profiles before anything hits the bed.

🔧

Finishing Tools

Flush cutters, sanding blocks, and a steady hand — the post-processing work that takes a print from "off the bed" to shelf-ready.
