3D printing in Peak District
The Peak District was Britain's first national park and it sits right on our doorstep — the eastern edge is a few miles from our base near Penistone. Villages, hill farms, outdoor businesses and holiday cottages inside the park are a long way from anywhere that makes plastic parts, which is exactly the situation where printing one to order starts to make sense. Everything is quoted from a file or a photo and posted out.
