Frequently asked questions
Materials & files
What materials do you work with?
We work with a variety of materials including wood, acrylic, paper, stone, certain leathers, cardboard, and more. We can also mark on some metals, although we cannot cut metal. Please note that we cannot work with any material containing PVC due to safety concerns.
Do you have materials for my project?
We keep a small amount of wood and acrylic on hand. And, we have various suppliers to help you source materials you may need.
What file formats do you accept for custom designs?
We accept DXF, PDF, EPS, and any file output by Adobe software. If you’re unsure about your file type or design, we offer a design consultation to help you get started.
Design & proofing
Can I get help with my design?
Absolutely! We believe in a collaborative process to help you realize your vision. You can request a design consultation, and we provide proofs upon request. Up to two proofs are included in your service; additional proofs are offered in sets of two for $50. Simple layout changes are complimentary, while more complex changes or consultations are billed at $45/hr.
How do you handle design revisions?
We offer up to two free proofs for your project. If further revisions are needed beyond that, they’re available at $50 per set of two proofs. Minor changes like layout adjustments won’t incur extra fees, but more detailed design modifications are charged at our hourly rate.
Pricing & turnaround
How do you charge for your services?
Our pricing is based on an hourly rate of $70 with a 30-minute minimum charge, plus the cost of any materials we supply.
What is your typical turnaround time?
Turnaround times vary based on the current job queue and the complexity of your project. While we don’t usually offer same-day services, rush orders can sometimes be accommodated for an extra $75—subject to availability.
Orders, shipping, and pickup
How do shipping and pickup work?
A separate invoice is created for any project that need to be shipped after they're completed. We also offer local pickup and drop-off of materials during our normal business hours.
Is there a minimum order size?
No. We collaborate with artists on unique, one-of-a-kind pieces as well as businesses requiring large-scale production runs.
Warranties
We do not offer guarantees or warranties. If you’re providing materials or products for us to work on, you’ll need to complete a waiver form.
