Safety & Responsible Use

At ThreeD Printables, we believe sensory tools should be both satisfying and safe. Our products are designed for external use only, offering firm but controllable tactile feedback for grounding, focus, and sensory regulation. Please take a moment to read this page carefully before using your tools.

How to Use Responsibly

Each of our sensory tools is designed to be used externally in your hands. The correct method of use is to hold or gently squeeze the product in your palm, applying as much or as little pressure as feels comfortable.

These tools are not intended to be pressed into the skin, used near the eyes, or applied to sensitive areas. Misuse can result in pain, bruising, or injury.

Our products are intended for individuals aged 12 and up, with parental discretion advised for younger users. Always use common sense and keep your tools out of reach of small children and pets.
