Frequently Asked Questions

What material are the models made from?

All our topographic models are 3D printed using high-quality PLA (Polylactic Acid). PLA is a durable, eco-friendly thermoplastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugar cane.

How big are the models?

Our standard hexagon models are approximately 100mm (4 inches) from edge to edge and feature varying heights up to 50mm (2 inches) depending on the true elevation variance of the route.

Do they come painted?

By default, models are printed in a single solid color (usually Olive green) to emphasize the pure topographic relief and shadowplay, with the trail/trek in Orange. We do not currently offer fully painted models. More colors will be added with demand.

Can you make a model of my personal route?

Yes! We love doing custom routes. Please visit our Contact page and send us an email with your GPX file. Custom routes generally carry a small design fee on top of the base printing cost.

How long does shipping take?

Since every route is made to order, please allow 3-5 business days for production. Standard shipping within the US typically takes an additional 3-4 business days.

Do you ship internationally?

Currently, we only ship within the United States. We hope to expand to international shipping in the future.
