A small family business with a simple idea.
Instead of throwing something away because one small part is broken — why not see if we can make the part?
How it started
It started at home, with a broken washing machine clip. The part was discontinued, the manufacturer had no stock, and a new machine would have cost hundreds. So we printed one. It cost pennies, took an afternoon, and worked perfectly.
That got us thinking. How many people throw things away — or spend a fortune replacing them — just because one small plastic part has snapped? We started MAKARO to offer a different option: send us the problem, and we'll see if we can make the solution.
We're still small, still local, and still learning. Every job teaches us something new. We work directly with our customers, ask lots of questions, and try to give honest, practical advice — not just take the order.

What we can help with
We use 3D printing, CAD design and practical problem-solving to help people and small businesses.
Replacement Parts
Discontinued, unavailable or just too expensive to buy new. We reverse-engineer and print functional replacements for appliances, furniture, vehicles and more.
Custom Adapters & Brackets
Need something to fit that doesn't exist? We design adapters, mounts and brackets to your exact measurements.
Prototypes & Ideas
Got an idea you want to test? We'll print a prototype so you can check the fit and feel before committing to anything.
Small Batch Production
Need 5, 10 or 50 of the same part? We handle small runs with consistent quality — no need to order hundreds.
Practical Solutions for Businesses
Custom displays, holders, jigs, organisers, cable management — practical things that help small businesses run more smoothly.
Design Help
Don't have a 3D file? That's fine. Describe the problem, send photos and measurements, and we'll handle the design side.
How we work
We're honest
If 3D printing isn't the right solution for your problem, we'll tell you. We'd rather give you good advice than take your money for something that won't work.
We keep it simple
No jargon, no complicated processes. Tell us what you need, we'll tell you what we can do and what it'll cost.
We're quick
Most jobs are quoted within 24 hours and printed within 1–3 business days of approval. We'll always let you know if something's going to take longer.
We're local
We're based in the UK and ship across the country. We're also happy to chat by phone or message if you'd prefer to talk things through.
