What is M42?
M42 is a small-batch design and manufacturing studio based in Colorado’s Front Range. We specialize in precision 3D-printed components and accessories, serving a wide range of industries—from overlanding and outdoor gear to precision woodworking accessories and modular systems.
Our focus is on creating functional, durable products that meet real-world demands. By combining additive manufacturing with thoughtful design, we deliver solutions tailored for both performance and longevity.
Why M42?
The name M42 is inspired by the Orion Nebula, a stellar nursery where the fundamental building blocks of the universe come together to form new stars. This natural process mirrors how we approach our work: carefully combining materials and innovative design through additive manufacturing to build high-quality parts and accessories.
Our Mission
At M42, our mission is to craft precision parts that solve real problems. We believe great design is rooted in functionality and reliability, and that quality manufacturing doesn’t have to come at the expense of flexibility or speed.
Our Vision
We aim to be the trusted partner for businesses and creators seeking small-batch, high-quality additive manufacturing solutions. By staying agile and detail-focused, we want to push the boundaries of what’s possible in modular design and custom fabrication.
Our Values
