Blue Box Goblin Blue Box Goblin - brand of Maikoot Limited - offering on-demand 3D printing, CAD, scan and filament. Established in 2018.

We are Swindon (UK) based a small family business and 3d filament supplier passionate about 3d printing and 3d modelling. So far we were able to help broad customers from different industries, businesses and individuals, to speed up their prototyping process, develop new products, support their hobby or simply replicate broken parts. Starting on automotive passionate and finishing on dentists, artists, product designers, plumbers, hobbyists and many more. We managed to combine 3d printing, designing and good plastic materials understanding supported with years of injection moulding background into comprehensive 3d services. We are constantly expanding our knowledge along with range of 3d filaments, artistic products, gadgets and miniatures available via the online store.

We're evolving

Over the last few months we've been making some changes behind the scenes.

As Maikoot Limited continues to develop, we're bringing our technical and engineering services together under Maikoot Solutions.

This is the side of the business focused on:

CAD design • 3D scanning • Reverse engineering • Functional 3D printing • Prototyping • Low-volume manufacturing

Blue Box Goblin isn't disappearing.

It will continue as our retail and product-facing brand, with a stronger focus on 3D printing filaments, online sales, eBay, Treatstock and selected creative projects.

We've also launched our new website:

maikoot.com

It is now becoming the main home for our business and technical services, with more information being added as we continue developing it.

You'll gradually see these changes across our website, social media and other business profiles over the coming months.

The workshop, the people behind it and the practical approach to making things haven't changed.

We're simply making the different parts of the business clearer.

Topic: wood PLA and creating an oak-style look with dye

Wood PLA does not have to stay looking like a fresh print.

For these trophy bases, we used wood PLA and then applied dye to create a more natural oak-style finish.

That is one of the nice things about this material — with a bit of finishing, it can move away from the usual “3D printed” look and start to feel much warmer and more traditional.

In this case, the dye helped to:

- deepen the colour
- highlight the surface texture
- give the base a more wood-like character
- make the final piece look more suited to a presentation item

It is a simple approach, but it can make a big visual difference.

3D printing is not always just about making the part. Sometimes it is also about choosing the right material and finish to create the right impression.

A different kind of project from the archive.

This custom motorcycle display model was created with a deliberately creative approach—not as an exact scale replica of a particular bike.

The aim was to capture the recognisable character of a motorcycle while leaving room to simplify, adapt and personalise the design.

Most of what we produce is functional, but selected creative commissions like this show another side of 3D printing: turning a personal idea into a one-off physical piece.

Filament Spotlight

Looking for a flexible filament for practical prints?

Rosa3D TPU 96A is a durable flexible material suited to parts that need toughness, grip and a bit of movement rather than full rigidity.

Good for:

- flexible covers
- protective parts
- clips
- workshop accessories
- impact-resistant functional prints

And in a bright colour, it also makes your prints stand out.

Filament Spotlight: Rosa3D PA12+15CF

Need something beyond PLA or PETG for a functional project?

Rosa3D PA12+15CF, also known as Nylon CF, is an engineering filament suited to parts that need increased stiffness, dimensional stability and durability.

It is a useful material to consider for applications such as:

- automotive components
- brackets and mounting parts
- housings and enclosures
-workshop equipment
- functional prototypes
- low-volume end-use parts

Shown here are custom dashboard vent components produced in black PA12+15CF—an application where appearance matters, but fit, stability and function are just as important.

PA12+15CF requires a suitable printer setup and wear-resistant nozzle, so check your machine compatibility before ordering. Unsure whether it is right for your printer or project? Send us a message.

A damaged part can still be a useful starting point.

A 3D scanner captures the object in front of it — including broken, worn or missing areas.

That means the scan is not automatically a finished replacement. It provides real-world geometry that can then be inspected, reconstructed and developed in CAD.

This impeller moved through four stages:

damaged original → 3D scan → digital reconstruction → printed replacement

When the drawing or original file no longer exists, what remains of the physical part can still help rebuild what has been lost.

Filament Spotlight: Rosa3D PC+PBT

Need something beyond PLA or PETG?

Rosa3D PC+PBT is an engineering filament intended for functional parts that need a tougher, more stable material.

It is a useful option to consider for applications such as:

- automotive components
- electronics housings
- robotic parts
- workshop equipment
- functional prototypes
- parts exposed to more demanding conditions

Available in black, PC+PBT gives functional parts a clean, professional appearance while offering a more application-focused option for projects where standard materials may not be enough.

We recently used it for a custom sports-car cooling channel — a practical example of matching the filament to the job.

3D printing does not always end when the print is finished.

For many parts, post-processing is what turns a printed component into something ready to test, assemble, present or use.

That can include support removal, sanding, filling, surface preparation, painting, fitting and final checks.

Not every part needs every step. Some parts are used straight from the printer. Others need extra work because the finish, fit or application matters.

The print is only one stage of the process.

The final result often depends on what happens before and after it.
