Wood You Look at That

Prusa Launches Limited Edition ‘Signature Oak’ 3D Printer

Published Oct 31, 2025

Hewn from slabs of Czech oak, personalized, signed, and, ultimately, still a great 3D printer, the Signature Oak is a Prusa passion project hewn to life.

We often talk about 3D printers becoming more appliance like, their ease of use and out-of-the-box experience nearly as simple as that of a toaster oven. As part of its bumper batch of announcements today, Prusa Research is taking that thought a step further with a deeply personal limited edition printer that’s less an appliance, and more a statement piece of furniture.

All of Prusa’s 3D printers are hand-built, but the Prusa Signature Oak is hand crafted. Only 250 will ever be made.

Rather than the typical black DLC-coated metal panels found on the company’s Core One 3D printer, the Signature Oak is a Core One-based 3D printer encased in thick slabs of hundred plus-year-old hand-fashioned oak by the family-owned Czech carpenters Jelinek, a long-established firm with historical connection to Josef Průša.

Planed, routed, sanded and part stained to a deep finish, the resulting printer, has a clean pseudo-traditional look that fits the concept of a living room statement piece well. Optionally freestanding on wooden legs with shelving space beneath and a flat top surface for further bedecking, brass fixtures finish the look.

The printers are fully functional pieces of furniture – beside the aesthetics, the Signature Oak is a Core One at heart. Minor customizations are possible, since each one is hand-crafted to order.

Each Signature Oak is numbered and signed by Josef Průša, who was awarded the Czech Medal of Merit this week. The Signature Oak is price on request, which for most folks translates to “too much”, I’m sure. But if I learned anything from my past beat covering luxury lifestyle stuff, its that people will pay for a story, craftsmanship, and personalization, three things that the Signature Oak offers.
