Billings, Montana · Family workshop

Ideasmadereal.

Multicolor 3D-printed collectibles, laser engraving, sublimation and the odd bit of software — made by Ben and his two kids, in a workshop that has already put 125-plus character balls on the shelf.

125 on the shelf. 230-plus we can print.

Character balls printed in Bambu multicolor PLA and finished by hand — from $18, most at $22, any three for $60. Pick one from the collection or ask for the one you've been hunting for.

What we make

One workshop. Six ways to create.

Parts, gifts, keepsakes, drinkware, small software, and the unusual projects that need figuring out.

How it works

Clear from idea to result.

You don't need a drawing or the technical words. A photo and a rough size is enough to start.

01

Show the idea

A sketch, a photo, a broken part, or the ball you want.

02

Shape the build

We pick the process, confirm size and color, and quote it.

03

Make and refine

Print, test, adjust until it does what it should.

04

Put it to work

Pick up in Billings or we ship. Then send the next one.

About

Homegrown in attention. Professional in execution.

BBP is Ben, Bentley and Patrick. It started with one printer and a lot of character balls. It's now a few printers, a laser, a sublimation press, a fair amount of code — and you're talking to the person actually making the thing.

Small-shop care. Professional results.

Have an idea? Send it over.

Photos, a rough size, and what it needs to do. We'll figure out the rest.
