Why Metal My Mini

It's one person, not a print farm. I review every file myself before it goes near the printer — if it won't plate cleanly, you get a revision or your money back. The gallery is real pieces from real orders, photographed as they shipped.

How it works

Every file is reviewed before anything is printed.

Step 1

Upload your model

STL, OBJ, or 3MF — up to 100 mm

Step 2

Choose a finish

Electroplated metal finish, polished to a shine

Step 3

Pay securely

Payment taken when you submit

Step 4

File review

I check printability, size, and how well it'll take copper

Step 5

Print, plate, finish

UV resin print, then real copper electroplating

Step 6

Ship within Australia

At cost, with tracking when it ships

About the maker

I'm Shay. I run Metal My Mini out of Melbourne — tabletop player, resin printer, and the one who does the plating. Every model that comes in gets looked at by me before anything is printed, so what ships is the best result I can get from your file.

— Shay, Metal My Mini

Before you order

  • Each model is reviewed after payment. If a file can't be produced and can't reasonably be fixed, I'll cancel and refund the order.
  • By ordering, you agree photos of your finished piece may appear in the gallery, on the site, and in marketing. Tell us in your order notes or email [email protected] if you'd rather we didn't — no reason needed.
  • I may contact you if your model needs a change, clarification, or extra processing.
  • See the Refund Policy, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service.
