Nature of 3D printed products

All items are made by additive manufacturing (layer-by-layer printing). Every print has unique characteristics, and minor variations between items, and from product photos, are normal and are not considered defects.

Possible defects & variations

Layer lines

Fine horizontal lines are a natural result of printing layer by layer and may be more visible on curved surfaces.

Stringing & wisps

Thin strands of material may appear between features. We remove most, but tiny remnants can remain.

Support marks & blemishes

Where support structures were removed, small rough spots or marks may be present.

Warping & dimensional tolerance

Parts may shrink or warp slightly. Small variations in fit are normal, and the modular design is made to adjust for them.

Color variation

Filament batches differ and screens show colors differently. Final colors and sheen may vary from photos.

Seams & small surface bumps

A visible seam line or tiny bumps can occur where each layer starts and ends.

Brittleness & layer separation

Printed parts are weaker along layer lines and can crack under bending, drops or excessive force. Thin parts, such as butterfly wings, are especially fragile.

Heat and sun sensitivity

PLA softens at relatively low temperatures. Do not leave frames in hot cars, near heaters or in prolonged direct sun.

Magnets & safety

Our frames and add-ons contain small magnets. Keep them away from young children and pets, since swallowing magnets can cause serious injury. Keep magnets away from pacemakers and other medical devices, and from magnetically sensitive items such as cards and some electronics. Our products are decorative display items, not toys, and are not suitable for children under 14 without adult supervision. Frames are not designed to hold heavy loads. Assemble and adjust with care, as parts and tools may have sharp edges.

Artwork & use

Frames do not include artwork. Caldari Services is not responsible for damage to artwork, diplomas, certificates or other items placed in or on a frame. Handle valuable or irreplaceable items with care.

Liability

Products are sold "as is." To the fullest extent permitted by law, Caldari Services is not liable for injury, damage or loss arising from the use or misuse of our products, or for the normal print variations described above. Nothing here limits your statutory consumer rights.

Orders, returns & damaged items

Orders are placed through our Etsy shop. Shipping, return and exchange eligibility are shown on each item listing, and Etsy Purchase Protection may apply. If your item arrives damaged or not as described, message us on Etsy with photos so we can make it right.
