If you have ever seen any of Mark 4's products you know how high the quality can go.The things I have gotten from him are as good as injection molding.

Though I would hope Shapeways prices would be a bit lower. :D

Good for them, it's certainly an up and coming technology and they have a pretty nice model...

However, I bet miniatures are a "minature" part of their business and they are going to be investing in selling more Iphone cases and related stuff.  I actually have a pretty damn good idea for a non-model RR product to make there and need to get a prototype made...

Kinda like the way you're breathing

$30 million is quite a vote of confidence, indeed. Good for them... and good for us, opening a world of possibilities to print the stuff you want. Once some of us learn the CAD part of it, of course.

 Does that mean free shipping in the future for buyers prior to the confidence money ? ;) ;) :-X :-X
