FAQs

  • What if a service I need is not listed?

    If you need a specific service that is not listed on our website, send us an email. We may still be able to help you!

  • I need a replacement part for something. Can you help me make it?

    Absolutely! We have many tools and skills to help create almost any replacement parts you may need. We’ve made replacement parts for cars, bulldozers, and even arcade machines!

  • Can I get a design you create manufactured by someone else?

    We are open to all manufacturing paths to ensure the final product meets your needs! Our quotes and specification documentation is tailored to each project, by which intellectual property and design ownership details are explicitly enumerated.

  • I have an existing design. Can you build a prototype using my design?

    We can certainly build a prototype of your existing design! We can even analyze your design to help make improvements, and we can make refinements towards the goal of decreasing manufacturing costs.

  • I have an electronic device that I made. Can you help me write software/firmware for it?

    Yes we can! Our programmers have years of experience in writing software and firmware for custom devices and widgets.

  • Approximately how much do your design services cost?

    Design costs vary based on the complexity of the assembly and the number of revisions needed during the design process. Reach out to us, and we will be happy to provide an estimate!

  • Approximately how long will it take to design my product?

    The duration of each project varies significantly based on the parameters and complexity. Smaller projects can be completed in under a month, while systems with complex electronic hardware and firmware may take the better part of a year. We will be able to provide an estimate after an initial consultation.

  • Do you charge for an initial consultation?

    We do not! Feel free to contact us for a free confidential consultation!

  • Can I cancel a contract with you prior to project completion?

    If you feel it necessary, you may be able to cancel prior to project completion. However, this may not always be the case. Be sure to check the terms of your specific contract.

  • How do you ensure I'm satisfied with the results of a project?

    Throughout the design process, we will provide regular status reports and updates, typically containing progress notes, photographs, and CAD renderings. These updates ensure we are all on the same page, and we can identify any issues requiring design changes. Depending on the scale and complexity of the project, we may also provide physical prototypes for review and evaluation.

  • I want to keep my project a secret from other people. Will you agree to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)?

    Of course! Our policy is to keep our work confidential, as the integrity of an idea can be more valuable than any prototype. We are happy to sign a legal NDA to ensure all ideas and concepts are protected.
