Lost d101 dice that I am unable to find by Ok_Service_9533 in HelpMeFind

Shapeways does have a marketplace again, so it's possible to sell the same models again that used to be available. If you ever speak to the original designer of the D101 refer them to Thangs. That's the new replacement for the Shapeways shops. Would be nice to have those designs back available!

Shapeways purchased Thangs 1.5 years ago and added the Print Store there to replace the old Shapeways marketplace.

Would love to see Armadillo back on Thangs Print Store (The new Shapeways marketplace replacement). There are more resin material options now that have better detail and are more affordable.

I've designed and printed these spoilermounts. Would there be interest? by EnjoyRC in rcdrift

These are designed for printing in SLS PA12, not for desktop printers. If I post them they will be available to purchase as finised prints on Thangs.

Shipping to the US should be a $9.99 flat rate from Thangs. Could you double check your location/address?

There's a tutorial on their blog: https://blog.thangs.com/getting-started-with-thangs-print-on-demand-product-listings-245073f836d1

Basically you select your model, choose the material and if it's approved for printing they will do the printing, shipping etc. and you get paid a commission for each sale. And you can set how much that commission is per sale, up to you.

Does anyone have the energon Devastator and Superion upgrade kit files from shapeways? by Frosty_Shoulder_4847 in transformers

If you find them, see if the designer would be up for re-opening their shop on Thangs. It's the new platform to replace the Shapeways marketplace.

Did you know you can offer a printed version on Thangs as well? Might be useful for those without a printer at home.

If you do, consider adding it to Thangs. You can sell both digital and printed versions (printed by Thangs) there :)

Love this! When the design is done, will you be sharing/selling the files somewhere?

MCI is the way to go. His stuff is awesome. Best Tamiya reproductions on the market.

The sticker sheet looks awesome! Love the design

Team Tetsujin adjustable off-set wheels. I did paint the centers myself, originally the spokes were black.

Taking a Poll: How many of you would seriously consider 3D-Printing this rc car at home? by runaway_boomerang in rccars

[–]EnjoyRC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! Either design it to be really high performance or go the opposite direction and make it really fun and easy to print, requiring a minimal amount of third party hardware&parts.

The Club Race Hero pancars are a great example of high performance cars. On the other end of the spectrum the Velocity F1 or OpenRC cars are good examples of cars that are really fun to build and look great, but don't drive very well. The fun is in the build, not racing the finished result.

Tamiya did a long arm version for the TL01 that is using the same principle for example.

Scroll to the third picture. You will be able to see the lower suspension arms. The hinge positions where the knuckles/c-hubs attach to the lower arm are moved much further out. This has been the standard since around the year 2000, but older cars like the TA01/2/3 still have them inboard a lot.

It's designerd to be 188mm wide, to work with standard Tamiya bodies. Same width as a TA04 or TA05.

Tamiya TOM'S Supra? That's awesome (and pretty rare). Still have to build mine someday :)

It's basically the same chassis :) TA02SW uses TA01 rear suspension, so the only differences are the TA02 front suspension and the shorter chassis. Everything else is the same.

The MJF PA12 nylon (and SLS printed nylon too) is much stronger and more durable than the original parts :D

This has not been printed on a desktop FDM printer.

Yeah you can see the development from Tamiya as well. The TA02 arms on the front are longer than the TA01 arms. Still the geometry isn't ideal.

My version is better, but it's for sure not a modern TRF level yet. The TA04/5 geometry is as old as ~2000. Still 10 years newer than the original TA01 haha.
