    3D Printing in ABS Plastic

    Just trying to figure out who would be interested in having a part produced in ABS Plastic. I own a 3D printer, and can print up to sizes of 8"x8"x8"

    Thanks for your input.

    This is a Thermoplastic Extrusion machine that prints .1mm thick per layer.

      These printers are sweet.
      What machine do you have?
      If I had 1 I would be making some scale drivers.

        I will be making vintage and modern scale drivers for 1/8 and 1/10 scale. Also I will be making accessory parts like mirrors etc.

          What do you need as a template? Do you need the actual part? Don't know how those work.

            Look it up on youtube/google you will see a ton of videos and parts people make.

            It prints from digital 3d models.
            Its like a cnc machine but instead of taking material away it builds material up in tiny layers.

              Printing will begin today. I will have examples up after I return in a week from a trip. There will be mirrors, drivers etc.

                            It is my personal. I work from home and print 3d prototypes. I just noticed that people do not offer enough "scale" items out there on the web.
