Chili is one of our closest neighbors — a southwest Monroe County town that runs from the Roberts Wesleyan University campus through residential neighborhoods to working farms along the Genesee. We work with Chili businesses and tradespeople on custom tooling and signage, with Roberts Wesleyan students and faculty on capstones and research prototypes, and with families on replacement parts and personalized projects.

Why work with a local Rochester shop
National 3D-printing services are fine when you don't care who's printing your part. For Chili businesses and makers, working with a local Rochester shop means real human conversation, a free design-for-manufacturing review on every quote, and the option to pick up and inspect your parts in person before they leave the shop. We're a family-run operation — every project that comes through is handled by people who stake their name on it.
What Chili projects look like
Chili shares a border with Ogden — Spencerport sits just north of Chili — and the two towns share a working-family character that makes for fast, friendly business. Chili is anchored by Roberts Wesleyan University on Buffalo Road, and the Black Creek tributary network shapes a mostly residential, semi-rural geography west of the city.
Chili projects in our queue are some of the easiest to handle because the distance is so short. We see Roberts Wesleyan student and faculty work — capstone projects, music-program props, athletic-program awards — alongside Churchville-Chili Central School District robotics and STEM-program parts. Residential demand covers the standard household-and-hobby mix, plus a steady flow of farm and small-acreage equipment replacement parts from the rural pockets west of North Chili. Chili-based small businesses along Chili Avenue and Paul Road occasionally send us signage and event pieces.
From Spencerport: 10-15 minutes south via Union Street, Westside Drive, or Buffalo Road. Same-day pickup is realistic for Chili customers when the print fits the schedule, and we've handed off items in person more times than we've mailed them.
Materials we stock: PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, Nylon, TPU, and SLA resin — six engineering plastics plus high-detail resin, matched to your project's mechanical, thermal, and aesthetic requirements.
Typical turnaround: 2–7 business days from approved quote. Rush options available for Chili clients with tight deadlines — same-day or next-day pickup in Spencerport when schedule and material allow.
