Sell custom CNC milling on Shopify with instant quotes
The SeekMake app on the Shopify App Store lets your store sell made-to-order CNC milling. Customers upload STEP and STL files, choose options and get a price from your rules, so custom parts sell like any other product.
Milling shops that sell their own products, such as fixture plates, vise jaws or enclosures, often use Shopify for them. Custom milled parts can sit in the same store: the customer uploads a model, picks material and finish, and gets a price from your milling rules.
