Accessibility statement

We want everyone who sells 3D prints to be able to use this site, whatever device, browser or assistive technology they work with. This page says what we aim for, what we checked, and what we know is not perfect yet.

Last updated: 11 November 2026

Our target

Every page of this site is built to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. That is also the level required by Israeli Standard IS 5568.

We believe the pages meet that level, with the limitations listed below. This is our own assessment. It has not been confirmed by an independent audit.

What we built in

• Every page has a "Skip to content" link, one main heading, headings in order, and header, navigation, main and footer landmarks.
• Everything works with a keyboard alone, and the control that has focus always shows a visible outline.
• Every calculator field has a label that a screen reader can read, including its unit or currency.
• When the result changes, the verdict is announced to screen readers. Verdicts are always written out in words (for example "LOSING MONEY"), never shown by colour alone, and negative amounts carry a minus sign.
• The cost chart has a text description, and the same figures are in the two tables under it.
• Text and controls meet the contrast levels of WCAG 2.1 AA in the light theme and in the dark theme. Links inside text are underlined.
• Pages can be zoomed to 200% and fit a 320-pixel-wide screen without sideways scrolling of the page. Wide data tables scroll inside their own box, which can be reached and scrolled with the keyboard.
• Animations are short, and are switched off when your device asks for reduced motion.
• Images have text alternatives, and tables have marked row and column headers.
• No accessibility overlay and no third-party widgets are used.

How we tested

• Code review. The HTML, CSS and script of every page were read against the WCAG 2.1 level A and AA success criteria.
• Calculated contrast. Colour contrast was calculated from the colour values in the style sheet, for both themes, not judged by eye.
• Automated checks. Every page was run through the axe-core checker in a desktop browser (Microsoft Edge), at 1280 and 320 pixels wide, in the light and the dark theme. It reported no failures on the final version.
• Scripted keyboard walk-through. A script pressed Tab through every control of the calculator page, at desktop and phone widths, and checked that each one can be reached, shows a focus outline and can be operated from the keyboard.

What we have not done yet: the site has not been tested by people who use assistive technology every day, and it has not been tested by a person using a screen reader such as NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver or TalkBack. It was also not checked in Safari or Firefox. Automated tools find only part of the possible problems, so there may be barriers we have missed.

Known limitations

• The spreadsheets. The downloads are Excel and Google Sheets files, delivered through Gumroad. How accessible they are depends on those apps and on the assistive technology you use with them. We have not audited the spreadsheets or the Gumroad checkout against WCAG.
• Screenshots of the spreadsheet. The calculator page shows two images of the sample workbook. Each has a text description, but the description is a summary and does not repeat every number in the picture.
• The cost chart. Some chart colours are light. Each band has a darker outline, and all values are in the tables beside it, but the chart alone may be hard to read with low vision.
• The calculator needs JavaScript. Without it, the page points to the free spreadsheet, which uses the same formulas.
• Very large headings grow by less than 200% when you zoom, because they are sized to the width of the window. Body text, labels and results scale fully.
