Custom scale models.
Your business in miniature.

Custom scale models, model trucks, forklifts, warehouse scenes and industrial demonstration pieces developed in Durban for business presentations, displays and gifting across KZN.

Your brief, made physical

Set the scale.
Define the finish.

From a single display piece to a coordinated batch: share your reference, overall dimensions and deadline. We’ll recommend a practical construction and quote the complete agreed scope.

Complete project support

Built around the application.
Not just the printer.

PRIMUS 3D combines design thinking, material selection, additive manufacturing and finishing. The result is a considered part or product made for its intended purpose—not an unfinished print that still needs to be resolved.

01

Choose the scale around the detail

A model of a truck on its own and a complete warehouse scene need different space. We agree the overall base dimensions, model scale and priority features first. Very small parts may need simplification so they can be printed and handled.

02

Choose the right level of finish

Plain printed models, painted display pieces and branded scenes have different production requirements. Logos, decals, scenery, display bases and protective covers are scoped individually. Moving parts and working mechanisms must be requested explicitly.

03

Approve the design before manufacture

Reference photographs, drawings and dimensions help us reproduce the important features. We agree design review points and what detail is achievable. Further copies can be quoted once the first model and finish have been approved.

Typical applications

Practical possibilities.
Purpose-led results.

Every project is assessed individually. Geometry, finish, operating environment, quantity and material requirements guide the manufacturing route.

Frequently asked

Before we
begin.

Can you make a 1:32 truck model?+

We can assess a 1:32 truck brief. Divide the full-size dimensions by 32 to estimate model dimensions. Photos, the exact vehicle variant and the required detail level are needed before we confirm the design and price.

Will a small scene show every detail?+

No. The smaller the model, the more fine features need simplification. We recommend a scale and base size around the details that matter most to your display.

How do I get an accurate quote?+

Send reference images, overall dimensions, quantity, preferred finish, delivery town and required date. Tell us whether the item is for indoor display, outdoor use or repeated transport. We confirm the scope and lead time before production.

Start with what you have

A sketch, sample or idea
is enough to begin.

Send us your requirements, measurements, reference photos, drawings or 3D files. We will help define the most practical route forward.
