3D printing

Hey guys, got myself a great 3D printer last week. It does fantastic prints for the price. It's a Wanhao Replicator i3. If any of you guys need anything made for your new inventions/quads etc then let me know and I'll give it a go for you, 3d drawings would be good, or I can have a go myself if you give sizes etc.. The maximum size I can print is 200 x 200 x 180 in height.

Someone may already have a printer on here, not read posts for donkeys..

I have PLA and ABS plastics, but can get others..

I would only ask you to pay for postage on anything I sent you, the model/part would be free. It's my new hobby at the moment and still learning 3D cad drawing. My intention for this is to learn 3D printing, not to make money.

I'll post some pics of what I've made so far later on, not much but it's great fun.

Yeah, I picked up a StepCraft 2 machine a while back. Primarily a CNC table, but I got the 3D print head with it too. Haven't tried using it yet. I have a bunch of vinyl showing up this week. Going to try cutting out some stuff for my in-laws with the drag knife attachment.

Cool stuff Tony. Can't wait to see what you do with it!
