Value 01. Nothing is subcontracted.
Every piece is made in our workshop. If your name is on the order, someone whose name you know made it. No dropshipping. No middlemen. No surprises about where it came from.
About
Est. 2022 · Sault Ste. MarieSmall studio, five machines, one standard.
Good things are made, not assembled. Local is a feature, not a compromise. If a piece doesn't meet our bar, we remake it — no charge, no excuses.
How we started
fonebazaar started in 2022 with a single 3D printer in a spare room and an itch to make gifts the local shops couldn't. One printer became two. Then came a laser cutter because our wooden name plaques deserved proper engraving. Then resin, then a heat press, then a vinyl cutter. Four years later, we run five crafts side-by-side — on purpose.
What we believe
Four rules we don't break.
Value 02. Honest timelines.
We'll tell you exactly how long your piece will take — even if that answer is two weeks. We'd rather lose a job than rush it and disappoint.
Value 03. Local first.
We source materials from within Canada where possible. Pickup in Sault Ste. Marie is always free. Shipping is quoted transparently, never marked up.
Value 04. Breadth by design.
Running five crafts side-by-side means you don't coordinate between three suppliers for one idea. One studio, one conversation, one pickup.
A note from the studio
Most of the shops we grew up around are gone now. Replaced by bigger boxes, online catalogs, and whatever shipped from three time zones away. That's fine for most things — but not for the piece you want engraved for your mother's birthday, or the trophy your league commissioned, or the sign that goes above your own front door.
Those things should come from someone local. Someone who picks up the phone. Someone who cares enough to remake it if the first one isn't right.
That's the bet we're making. Thanks for being part of it.
