Filament, power, your time $26.06Marketplace fees $7.58Left from this sale $41.37

At the mid price, if it sells. Shipping not included.
Why it can work
- Weddings have generous gift budgets
- Personalisation expected
Why it might fail
- Long print times per unit
- Wood and acrylic look more premium
- Bulky to ship
Be aware before you sell
Check the file licence, or design your own to personalise it. Generic designs are low risk, but copied Etsy designs can bring design-theft complaints. Etsy asks for your own original design, so a licensed file may not qualify.
How to get a file you may sell
- Make your own. Tinkercad is free and enough for simple shapes.
- Buy a commercial licence. Many designers on Cults3D, MyMiniFactory and Etsy sell one. Read what it allows.
- Use open licences. CC0 and CC BY allow selling prints. NC does not. Filter by licence on Printables or MakerWorld and keep a screenshot.

Our take
Laser-cut wood looks more wedding-appropriate, and a printed box needs many hours for a price the wood products already set. Only small signed tokens printed as an add-on look viable, not the main box.

Competition
Laser-cut wood sellers dominate wedding marketplaces, and printed finished boxes were not confirmed at a credible price.
