We Make Beautiful Custom Products for Designers & Makers

Ponoko provides laser cutting3D printing & metal machining services to turn your designs into custom products. You select from 80+ beautiful materials, download our design template, add your design to it, then upload it to get an instant online quote to make your design real. Pricing starts from less than $5. You can make 1 or 100,000. And your designs are made & delivered as fast as same day.
Our designers will turn your 2D vector designs into real products by laser cutting and engraving your designs on our beautiful flat sheet materials, with 0.1mm laser precision.
With a standard turn around period of 1 week (free), you can also order and ship your custom product all in the same day.
You can order just 1 to get started, or 100,000 to keep rocking. And anything in between.
Order only when you need it. Eliminate your need to keep stock. Less waste this way too.
Don't spend a cent until your design and price is just right. Get quotes for your endless design iterations using our online instant quoting service.
If we stuff up, we'll re-make and re-ship your custom product for free. And we'll be so upset for upsetting you, that we'll flog ourselves for a week.

Why

Ponoko was born to make making local.

We believe in consumers streaming and downloading products. Kinda like a digital Ikea, then a Star Trek Replicator.

Custom products cost less financially and environmentally this way.When you make locally, product shipping and storage costs are lower than traditional mass production.

When you make on-demand, this reduces the over supply waste of traditional mass production. And when you make a digital product download, the traditional cost of customization almost disappears.

So, in 2007 we started transforming the way consumers receive products … We launched the world’s first service for creative people to make and sell downloadable products online.

So far more than 145,000 creatives have made over 425,000 custom products at our 12 digital making centers across the USA, EU and NZ.

Beautiful custom products and product businesses are being hatched 10x faster than ever before using our online laser cutting and 3D printing service.

Join us as we help lay the foundations of the third industrial revolution - distributed digital mass production.
