3D Scanning Services

At NH Makers, we offer professional 3D scanning services for individuals, small businesses, makers, and organizations throughout New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Whether you need a digital 3D model, a replacement part, or a custom 3D printed item, we can help bring your object into the digital world with precision.

We specialize in small- to medium-sized objects, delivering accurate scans that can be used for duplication, modification, or manufacturing.


What Is 3D Scanning?

3D scanning is the process of capturing the exact shape and dimensions of a physical object and converting it into a digital 3D model. This model can then be:

  • Used for reverse engineering
  • Modified for design improvements
  • Converted into STL files for 3D printing
  • Archived for future production or replacement

Our scanning workflow focuses on accuracy, clean geometry, and real-world usability, not just visual models.

We provide local 3D scanning services in NH for a wide range of use cases, including:

  • Replacement or discontinued parts
  • Broken or worn components
  • Custom enclosures or housings
  • Tools, knobs, brackets, and adapters
  • Hobby, maker, and prototype projects
  • Objects for design reference or measurement

Typical object size:
From small items (golf-ball sized) up to small appliance-sized parts.

If you’re unsure whether your item is a good candidate, just ask—we’re happy to review it.


From Scan to Finished Part

We don’t just scan objects—we help you use the scan.

Depending on your needs, we can provide:

  • Raw or cleaned 3D scan files (STL / OBJ)
  • Edited or simplified models ready for printing
  • Functional 3D printed parts using durable materials

If your goal is a physical replacement part, we can handle the entire process from scan → model → print.
