DanieldH Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi everyone, I just stumbled over http://www.shapeways.com and thought about what could be made with it for our use. mic suspensions, lav concealers? Any ideas welcome. Maybe we could come up with a simple project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However they maybe cheaper if you already have access to a plotter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanieldH Posted March 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 This could be an approach. Hard to tell, without experience of the materials. Edit: Here is a simple extrusion made by shapeways image-popper tool. Length and width seem rounded from .5 down to the millimeter, so I'll redo it with outside measures close to .0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blas Kisic Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Can you specify the material? For instance, the hardness or rigidity of the plastic? Cheers, BK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
