3-D Printing & Custom Parts
Small parts. Practical solutions.
A useful bracket, a better-fitting adapter, or a simple mount can help keep good equipment in service. 3-D printing gives CleanSpec Lab another way to solve those everyday problems.
We use small-format printing and straightforward custom design to support our refurbishment work and develop useful hardware. We also consider select small projects where that same approach is a good fit.
Where it fits
Making equipment work a little better.
Brackets, mounts & adapters
Simple functional parts that help components fit, stay in place, or work together. The starting point is the hardware and the space available.
Shop aids & useful accessories
Small organizers, positioning aids, and practical pieces that make a repair, assembly, or everyday task easier.
Prints & fit checks
Small parts from an existing model, or an initial print to check dimensions and clearances before making a practical revision.
Examples from our own work
Built around a real need.
Our printed parts grew out of problems encountered while preparing computers and workstations. They show the scale and kind of work we focus on.
Workstation cooling mounts
CSL-001 and CSL-002 use custom printed mounting assemblies to install rear-chassis fans in specific HP Z2 small-form-factor workstation configurations. The work brings together physical fit, component clearance, assembly, and configuration-specific testing.

CSL-003 and CSL-004 were developed to mount 2.5-inch SSDs in 3.5-inch drive locations, in single- and double-stack configurations. A small adapter solves a practical mounting problem during a build.
Examples of in-house development; availability and suitability depend on the application.
A practical approach
Measure. Print. Check. Refine.
We start with what the part needs to do and where it needs to fit. A sketch, measurements, reference hardware, or an existing model helps define the job. An initial print can reveal clearances or details that need adjustment.
Fit checks and any functional testing depend on the project and the hardware available. We describe what has actually been checked and identify what still needs to be evaluated.
Small projects, considered individually.
Our current setup is a Bambu A1 Mini, suited to small parts, one-offs, and limited quantities. PLA and PETG are available where appropriate for the intended use.
Part size, design complexity, fit, material, and working conditions determine whether a request makes sense. For custom design, our focus is straightforward brackets, adapters, mounts, and similar functional pieces.
We review heat exposure, loading, and other application requirements before accepting work. Some requests will be better suited to another process or a specialist.

Have a small project or a question?
We enjoy figuring out how to make things fit and work better. If you have a small project or a question about what might be possible, get in touch. We’ll be straightforward about what we can take on, and if it falls outside our capabilities, we’ll do our best to point you in the right direction.
Get in touch with a brief description, photos or a sketch, key dimensions, and the quantity you need. If you already have a printable model, mention it. Tell us how the part will be used and any timing requirements.
For projects we take on, scope, price, timing, and any revisions are agreed before work begins.
