What Else Do You Print?
We have been printing a lot of of Prusa Mendels lately. I am continuously surprised and pleased at the steady rate of demand for 3D printed parts. However, I wanted to mention that fabbR is not limited to producing RepRap parts. If you design it, we will print it (as long as it fits on the build platform)! Some of the things that we have designed and printed include: A GPS Mount, bottle opener, and a US CPSC Small Parts Test Tube. For more awesome 3D parts check out Thingiverse.com.
What Software Do You Use?
If you have a design that you would like printed, send us a .stl file and we will provide you with an estimate on the cost of the parts. We are charging $9 per ounce for custom prints. When we receive the file opening it in Rhino is a good way to see the scale of the object. You can also view and manipulate objects with Replicator G, before generating the code to print them. Skeinforge is another helpful piece of software for viewing the layers of a potential print.
Sharing
What have you printed or shared on Thingiverse? We are interested in seeing what you are printing and designing at home. Leave a message in the comments to let us know.
