3d printing

[Etherz]

I just saw an enclosure for a mod that was made using 3d printing. They is calling it vapor Droid or something.

My question is has anyone used a 3D printing service like I.materialize. com, which is what he used.

I've used Shapeways. It is a bit expensive, and takes a while to get delivered, but I have been extremely pleased with the items I've ordered.

What was the material used? I remember the early versions of 3d printing where the material wasn't would melt easily.

Myself, Bapgood and Gdeal do a lot of stuff with 3D printing on Shapeways. The material used is a nylon that has temperature handling capability that has been working just fine for our mods.

I have Access to a 3D Printer.

A Great Tool for doing Prototyping. Or to show "Proof of Concept" to a Customer for a buy Out. But the Draw back to the One I have used is that it Prints using ABS Plastic.

So yeah... You can make so Very Cool Stuff. But if you Drop what you Printed on a Hard Surface, there is a Good Chance that it Might Break Break.

ABS has Very Little "Give" or Flex.

Shapeways has a choice of materials, so you have some flexibility. Not hard to get what you need.

OMG... I just went to that site, dude its like over $160 for the pieces.... check out shapeways. I've never ordered anything but plenty other have. Search up dna20 or dna30, you'll find tons of stuff from mamu, bapgood and jonniemac (and I'm sure others) and I guarantee you'll get out for less than $160.... unless your just in love with that design?

I have a 3d printer, and am interested in attempting some mods... If you can provide me a design in .stl format I would love to try printing it!

what materials does your 3d printer do

everything from plastic to titanium. If use use a shop like shape ways it may help. You and also base a 3D Copy service so instead of a computer design just provide a sample and get quotes. Staples will soon offer both services. A small home D printer is under a thousand dollars and fine for box mods and cylinders.

I'm using a site called MakeXYZ. It finds someone local, and connects you with them. It also facilitates the payment process and holds your funds until the product is delivered.
