Cults is a 3D printing marketplace allowing designers, makers and other users to share free and paid models meant for 3D printing. It is also a social network where 3D printing enthusiasts can interact.[1] In March 2023, the Cults community had nearly 8.2 million members, including nearly 123,000 designers and 1.2 million 3D models to download for 3D printing, laser cutting or CNC machining.

History

Cults was founded in 2014 and is the first fully independent 3D printing marketplace.[1]

In 2015, La Poste established a partnership with Cults and 3D Slash to develop impression3d.laposte.fr, a digital manufacturing service, allowing users to have objects printed and shipped to them on demand.[2]

In 2016, Boulanger partners with Cults to develop Happy 3d, an open source platform dedicated to spare parts printing, in an effort to promote sustainable consumption.[3][4][5][6]

Name

The name Cults is a semordnilap: Read from right to left, it spells St-Luc, patron saint of artists and sculptors. Additionally, the first three letters are STL, referring to the common stereolithography file format used by creators.
