3d printer setup in Barnes

Unboxing a new 3D printer is one thing; getting it assembled, levelled, and printing reliably is another. In Barnes we often see families and hobbyists who’ve bought a machine and then hit a wall with assembly, bed leveling, or slicing software. We take care of the full setup so you can focus on designing and printing. A typical visit covers assembly (if needed), bed leveling and nozzle height, and calibration of extrusion and temperatures. We then install and configure your slicing software, run test prints, and adjust settings until quality is consistent. You’ll get a walkthrough of the machine and software so you can carry on confidently. If something goes wrong later — failed prints, blockages, or settings drift — we can troubleshoot remotely or pop back for an onsite visit. We’re based in Putney and reach Barnes in about 15–30 minutes depending on traffic. If you’d like us to do the setup at your home, have the printer unpacked and the workspace clear; we’ll bring tools and show you the basics. Once everything is dialled in, we’re happy to provide follow-up support so you get the most from your printer.
