The Story
Who is The Workbench 3DTM?
Bryan McFarland holds a degree in fine art (sculpture, drawing, painting, ceramics) and has since transitioned to 3D CAD design and 3D printing. His proficiency with Fusion 360 has allowed him to create everything from machine parts to complex organic sculptures. Meanwhile, he has nearly a dozen 3D printers ready to fabricate everything from prototypes to finished products. When needed, Bryan also utilizes hand-tooling for adding further detail with sculptural techniques. Post processing, such as sanding, vapor polishing and/or flame polishing can also be provided along with painting, applying epoxy resin or organic polymers. Large pieces can be broken down into parts and assembled then bonded with adhesives or welded. ​
There are a wide range of colors and materials available in stock and thousands more available within 2-3 days for delivery. The Workbench 3D can print in the following materials and more: PLA, PETG, ASA, polycarbonate, PVA, TPU and nylon. Reinforced polymers are also available, such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, stone, wood and steel. Specialty plastics for fire resistance or EMR shielding are also available. The strongest material available is a carbon fiber-reinforced Nylon 12 which is comparable to 5000 series aluminum. Bryan can help you choose which plastic is the right option.

​
Bryan uses an array of technology in the creation of his designs such as 3D scanners, state of the art CAD software (Autodesk Fusion) and nearly a dozen Prusa 3D printers. Post-processing is done with hand tools, dremels, torches, hot air guns and vapor smoothing chambers.
​
The design and printing process is straightforward. You'd share the design concept including images, measurements and diagrams and Bryan will create a first draft using CAD. After your review, Bryan will make any edits and larger changes required until the model has reached refinement. For design-only services, you will receive the files (stl, obj, F3D, 3MF). For those receiving a physical model from 3D printing, it will be shipped with the option of also receiving the files. For inventors, NDAs are also possible.
​
Fees for design are $35/hour.
​
3D printing is charged based on the type and volume of material with a range from $0.10/gram to $0.45/gram.
​
Complex post-processing is charged at $25-$35/hr.
