What we do

At Monkeyfab we create beautiful custom objects for architecture, fashion, art, museums, product storytelling, and exhibition design.

Our core focus is large-format display work: full-scale figures and sculptures, trade-show features, shop-window installations, museum pieces, and other ambitious objects. At the same time, we also build precise models with intricate, jewelry-like detail — always pushing the practical limits of the process.

Tools

We work with 3D scanning, large-format and high-detail 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, bending, vacuum forming, and other robust production techniques.

The final finish always belongs to our skilled artists, who assemble, refine, and hand-finish every object in our workshop.

Thanks to our printer farm, we can handle demanding deadlines and produce very large objects in surprisingly short lead times.

How we got here

Monkeyfab was founded in 2012 by the Twardo brothers and friends during the first big wave of desktop 3D printing, driven by equal parts engineering obsession and appetite for adventure.

We began by designing and building our own machines, starting with Monkeyfab Prime 3D based on the Prusa i3 lineage. It helped us establish ourselves in the market and manufacture thousands of parts and objects.

Later came Monkeyfab Spire — compact, fast, precise, and elegant. It was enthusiastically received by the community, but over time client projects became larger, more demanding, and more ambitious.

That is why Monkeyfab KILO became a turning point for us. With close to one cubic meter of build volume, it unlocked the scale we had been aiming for long before large-format 3D printing became common.

And then even further

After KILO, things accelerated quickly. We focused on design and fabrication services while continuing to build machines for our own internal production needs.

First came the KILO 500 farm, then X12B, and finally Monkeyfab Portal — our gateway to even larger possibilities.

We are still expanding what we can make, and we are always ready for the next unusual challenge.
