Uh, question. What if you don’t have a 3D printer, but need something 3D printed? I’ve asked around, and there are no 3D printers available in this area. Is there an online fabrication service you can use? I want to get a higher profile D-pad for my Switch Lite, to replace the crappy one Nintendo put in there by default. Unfortunately, there’s limited size tolerance, and it seems that specific equipment is required.
Reddit had a community called something like 3dprintmything where you could post what you were looking for and get bids from folks who could get it to you. I dunno if we have anything like that here.
I had this exact question last week. Found a UK based hub service with providers in many countries. Search for Treatstock and see if you find it useful.
Of you have a model file there’s services online, someone else jlpcb and I’m pretty sure shape ways is still a thing. You usually can fine printing services on eBay too.

Stratasys, Protolabs, Shapeways, Hubs, etc. Tons of options out there. Search 3D printing and your closest city and I’m sure there will be something.
My library does prints for almost free

I’ve bought some STLs from Gambody.com and they offer a print service along with them.
