Order this design
Option A
Order as-is
Produced exactly as designed. No engineering fee — the design work is already done, so you pay manufacturing and shipping only.
Option B
Modify this design
Change dimensions, material, branding or details. Reduced engineering fee, since we are adapting an existing design rather than starting from zero.
Option C
Create your own version
Start from your own idea in this category and go through the full design process. Standard engineering fee applies.
Every option is quoted before anything is made or charged. Pricing depends on size, material, finish and quantity.
