Organizing the World's 3D Models
STL Shelf was born from a simple problem: storing files was easy, but managing a private 3D printing library was not. After years of downloading models, buying bundles, and designing our own parts, we ended up with thousands of files scattered across hard drives, cloud folders, and USB sticks.
Our Story
We're makers just like you. We've felt the pain of searching through folders named "STLs", "Downloads", "Print Later", and "Definitely Print This Time" looking for that one perfect model.
STL Shelf is our answer to that chaos. It is software designed to organize, catalog, version, and manage private 3D printing model libraries. The hosted product managed by us is the fastest path for most users, and the open-source code makes self-hosting possible when control matters more.
Whether you're a hobbyist with a growing collection or a print farm managing thousands of production files, STL Shelf scales with you.
What We Believe
Privacy First
Your data belongs to you. Self-host to keep full control, or trust our secure cloud infrastructure.
Built for Speed
Lightning-fast 3D previews and instant search across thousands of models. No waiting around.
Made for Makers
Built by makers, for makers. We understand the chaos of managing thousands of STL files.
Open Source at Heart
STL Shelf is open source. You can self-host it, contribute to it, or just peek at the code to see how it works. We believe in transparency and community-driven development.
