3D Printing Tools
I’ll say this right up front — I’m a self-confessed tool junkie.
Before I ever touched a 3D printer, I was already known in the jewelry and precision-hand-tool world as the pliers and cutters guy, with immediate access to literally hundreds of models from Xuron, Tronex, Swanstrom, Knipex, and more. So when I built my own print farm, I didn’t go looking for “3D printing tools”… I went straight to the best precision tools made — because that’s what actually works.
And after thousands of hours of real production printing, support removal, part cleanup, and assembly, this collection is the result.
These are not random hobby tools.
These are the tools I personally use every single day to:
-
Reach into tight sockets and remove supports cleanly
-
Make true flush cuts without stressing or whitening the part
-
Clean up holes and precision features
-
Install hardware and assemble multi-part prints
-
Work faster with less hand fatigue during long production runs
If you’re running multiple machines, doing high-volume output, or just care about the quality of your finished parts, you already know — post-processing is where the real time is spent. The right tool can literally cut your cleanup time in half and dramatically improve your results.
Most “3D printing tool kits” are built to hit a price point.
This collection is built from real-world use in an active print farm by someone who has access to more precision hand tools than just about anyone in the industry — and only stocks the ones that actually earn a place on the bench.
My long-time motto applies here too:
You can never have too many tools — but you can have a toolbox that’s too small.
If you’re serious about your printing, these are the tools that belong next to your machines.
