TidewaterForge

Tidewater Forge is a one-person 3D printing shop in Wilmington, North Carolina, right in the tidewater country of the Cape Fear coast.

I make practical pieces that solve small, everyday annoyances: racks that get gear off the floor, stands that keep tools within reach, organizers for the stuff that never has a home. Every product starts as an original design built in CAD (I use AI-assisted design tools in that process). I test-print each one on my own printer to check fit and strength before it’s ever listed, and I tweak anything that isn’t right.

I’ve spent years printing everything from everyday PLA to engineering materials like carbon-fiber nylon, so I know what holds up and what doesn’t. Your order is printed fresh when you buy it, inspected, and packed by me.

If something isn’t right, message me and I’ll make it right. If you need a different size or a custom version, ask. That’s the advantage of a shop that makes everything itself.
