bluejay Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4167139 I'll be blunt; I know next to nothing about 3d printing, and I don't own a 3d printer. But if you can make like 5 of these that are durable enough to function properly, that'd be great. I'll can pay a few bucks plus shipping. Thanks!

+stupus Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 That guy is selling 12 for $8, cant you just buy them from him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightbit Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I've used www.makexyz.com a few times and it worked out great. But, sometimes, the price is not worth it. Still, you can upload the STL files and see what it will run you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I dont see how anyone could or would want to be less than the like 65 cents a piece the file creator has them for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluejay Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Actaully, I was a bit confused about the shapeways link he posted, as it had the same price regardless on how many gears I chose. If it's actually the same price for whatever amount I want, then I'll most definitely order a few from him. If that wasn't the case though, I wanted to ask if someone here was willing to make some for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Looks like its $8.00 from 1 up to 12 if you want 12. If you want 5 thats still comes to $1.60 a piece. A very, very good price for a already tuned in resin mold. But you may as well take the 12 if its the same price and split it with somebody or save the spares. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 That's not how Shapeways works, they are $8 a piece, plus shipping. Add the quantity to your cart and you'll see. These are very small, high detail parts that require a resin printing process, which most home 3D printers (FDM type) can't do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 You have to select the size too. That is the true quantity. It stays at $8 until you go over 12 pieces which is 1 order of the extra large size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Oh you're right, he set it up so that you could buy multiples on one sprue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
