I had to upload a file so I could get it printed in brass. After 30min of their slow a$$ site I finally got to the part where I pay. Part was $13.08. Total after shipping was $30.03  :| This is going to be a large box with a tiny little baggie inside of it with my part. I sure don't miss that place.

There are other contractors besides SW that are more economical. Try ExOne in Pennsylvania next time. They printed the engine frame for my EP-3.

No. They are a 3D contractor. You have to supply the digital model.
