The Person Behind Every Single Print
Hi, I'm Ray. What you're looking at isn't a dropshipping store or a factory catalogue. It's a family business built on a passion for making things — and a life that took some unexpected turns.
"After a workplace injury, a CRPS diagnosis and eventually losing my right leg, I had two options. Let it define me, or redefine myself. I chose to keep making things."
— Ray, Founder of Shire 3DLiving with disability gave me something no market research ever could — genuine firsthand understanding of where daily life has gaps. I knew exactly which tasks became unexpectedly hard. I knew where products fell short. And I had the skills to fill those gaps myself.
What started as a hobby turned into a way to support my family while genuinely helping people. Every product is designed, printed, inspected and packed right here in my Perth workshop. Every order supports a real Australian family.
What Customers Are Saying
104 verified reviews. 4.9 stars. Real people, real products, real results.
Designed By Someone Who Understands
Ray doesn't design disability aids from a brief or a spreadsheet. He designs them from personal experience — living with CRPS, an amputation, and the daily challenges that come with disability.
That's why these products actually work. They solve real problems for real people.
Clips to any wheelchair. Both hands free. Slide-on or fixed mount versions.
Rectangle or square versions. Designed for arthritis and reduced grip. Pour with confidence.
Can opener, milk carton holder and can puller. A portion goes to disability charities.
Thin or cylinder grip. Perfect for arthritis, long nails or limited dexterity.
"After a workplace injury and eventually losing my right leg, I started designing the products I actually needed. Products that give back independence — without needing a prescription or a huge price tag."— Ray, Shire 3D Founder
