Our 3D prints are made by Fabrizio Sburlati and imported from Italy. *** extremely limited ***
Fabrizio has over 35 years of experience in 3D modeling. His experience as a professional, outside of the hobby, assists us with providing the best technology possible, accurate curing times to ensure durability, and a model free from common defects.
As a professional reiner, Fabrizio has a deep connection to the equine world. Fabrizio's genuine love for horses makes him an exceptional person to create our models.
We only use traditional size 3D printed horses as prototypes within our own production process. Mini size prints are available in limited quantities.
Our mini prints are solid, with no need for interior curing. Smaller models have far less layers than traditional scale models. Fewer layers have less chance of material distortion and warping. There is better dimensional accuracy for intricate details on a smaller model due to the smaller deposition of material with each layer. A more durable model can be made in a smaller scale since the lighter weight, and smaller scale, makes them have less need for wire support in the legs.

Dandy Poe Rocket is my heart horse.
I saved up $100 to buy him as a weanling when I was in 8th grade. He taught me all I know about horses My ex and I raised, trained, bred and showed horses, we had 23 head when we dispersed, and none replaced Dandy in my heart. Dandy forgave me my mistakes.
I took him to college with me and I rode him in goat tying, breakaway roping and barrels as part of the North Dakota State University rodeo team. Then, in my senior year, he foundered. We still don't know why our what or how. So, I gave him to a family I knew well and they said they would try and rehab him through it because the Dad was a farrier.
I ended up in vet school, then moving to Nebraska and Dandy had recovered pretty well but he'd never be a competition horse again, so he lived to be 28 carting their kids around the farm.
It hurt so much to see him go, but as a student I just didn't have the time or resources to rehab him myself. But he had a good life.
