I also design and 3d print some details, buildings, etc.

Here are some items I designed and had printed at shapeways.

Hi Kent, nice details. I have a MakerBot Replicator 2 3D printer as a prototyper it is fine but as a production tool it is way too slow, It took my printer 6 hours to print out a 40' boxcar body in S scale Confusedhock: I have revised the design several times so far and still have too draw up the roof and floor. Once I get a "good" print that I am ok with I may go thru shape ways and have a few printed off for my self. At this time not able to go into production for extra income but maybe down the road. I also have been watching 3D printing develope for hobbyists I may get a 2nd 3D printer by Lulzbot specificaly the TAZ as it has a bigger build area, somewhat faster and is compatibale with several materials not locked into just PLA plastic for close to the same price as the Makerbot Replicator 2.
