FTO AUSTRALIA

has anyone ever looked into getting one of these 3d printed?

im looking around now to find a palce to run one off i think. at least to see if its cheaper than buying new.

perhaps there are other parts we can 3dprint to replace?

suggestions?

well the plastic is ABS like lego bricks.
so it should be pretty solid.
and Oh so many colours!!

im prepared to do a batch of a few parts for myself
i have a mate with a 3d scanner, im going to go over his place and scan a heap of parts.

i guess at this stage im just looking for a list of parts you guys would like to see attempted.

im happy to get them scanned and send you the blueprints for you to try yoursleves!

unless its a part im trying to build for me too (: then im willing to take the cost of the trial onboard!

so think about it .. let me know

Door cups?
pod box?

Yeah I'd be in for some door cups and console surrounds

What is a 3d printer anyway? Like a scanner that clones stuff into plastic? Can u clone my GF? I wouldn't mind two

Id also be in for centre console

yes it can clone your girlfriend, but all in plastic. so you'll get more sex and less backchat!

ok so im going to go ahead and get scans done, i'll try to do a test print before xmas. so if you think of ANYTHING else add it to this list (:

someone said air box?
factory air box? or aftermarket something?

A 3D printer prints things a tiny single layer at a time.

Imagine stacking thousands of pieces of paper that has been cut out specifically so when its stacked it forms a shape, thats basically it.

to copy one i would have to scan an exisintg, so if dwayne is willing to take his off, post it to me, let me scan it, and send it back to him .. im sure we could do it

Heat will be a problem I am assuming. But I am serious about printing small handy tools. I was looking at buying a 3D printer sometime this year.
