ITS3D.NYC

What happens when a prototype needs to exist by tomorrow? ITS3D.NYC handles the gap between idea and object—filament, resin, or metal—without the wait. On the third floor of 50 Eldridge St, between Chinatown’s steam-table luncheonettes and the Bowery’s neon glow, they turn digital files into tangible parts: architectural maquettes, custom jigs, dental models, even small-batch production runs. The Lower East Side has always been a neighborhood of makers; this service just swaps soldering irons for extruders. Call (929) 695-3823 to reserve printer time before the next deadline hits. Directions and hours live on the map—walk-ups are fine, but the freight elevator is slow on weekends.
