Teen starts 3D printing business at 15, now earns £17,000 yearly from models

A teenage 3D printing business that began with skyscraper models has grown into a small enterprise earning about £17,000 a year. Reece, a 17-year-old from Worksop in Nottinghamshire, launched the venture at 15, and today his products reach customers across the United Kingdom and overseas. He now runs four printers at home, day and night, to keep up with orders, and his promotional work has made him well known locally. For a teenager who is still in education, that makes the enterprise remarkably well established, turning a personal passion into paid work with real customers and a varied product range.
