  1. While not actually passengers, these are also 3D printed, in color!
  2. Sorry for the inconvenience guys! It looks like the finance team accidentally swapped the values for the conversion from Dollar to Pounds. I've filed a report on this to make sure it won't happen again and gets double checked before publishing. Edit: sorry also nobody on duty during the weekends at Customer Service (i like to be off during the weekends)
  3. "doesn't look too bad" ?? It looks amazing! well done on the painting as well
  4. Here is another topic about this subject from last year, might help: https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/144576-anycubic-i3-mega-3d-printer-anyone-used-it/
  5. Hi everyone, I have an Anycubic Mega S 3D printer and  somehow the base plate became un even, as a result the nozzle dragged itself along the plate and essentially etched the design I was printing into it. I now can’t get the whole thing to work as the material isn’t flowing through the nib properly and I’ve messed with it so much that I’m not sure what height the plate needs to be anymore . I was wondering if anyone on here was London based and would be able to fix it for me?  I’m not great with these things and basically just want to pay to get it resolved! I’m in SE London, would anyone be interested??

      You could try putting a post up in the Help section as well?

      Great, thanks for the suggestion!

  6. It sounds like the Manufacturing Speed has been changed to Priority Manufacturing. Instead of the cheaper Economy Speed. As for the currency, this changes on the first of the month. So the currency exchange rate is changed tomorrow (1st of May)
  7. Some more pictures First of all a pictures with a 1:87 steamlocomotive, to show how small this stuff actually is!
  8. I definitely agree here! As you might have seen, I started building a dutch layout in T gauge (1:450). Practically nothing exists for this scale, so I'm pretty much 3D printing everything needed to make it look dutch. Sure you can do it by hand in the phsyical world.... but I'm doing it by hand in the digital world and have a 3D printed turn it into something physical
  9. So i checked your account, you're referring to the model "M P V3-1 30" This was previously ordered for $95 USD the price has now moved to $225 USD. Your model contains 30 loose parts which our production team needs to manually handle 1 by 1 (plan them in a printer tray, clean them, sort them, put them in a bag). For this reason the per part pricing has been changed to $7.50 which will add up to the $225 USD for your model. Maybe you could consider to sprue the model to save on costs as it will bring down the number of parts. I wrote a best practice guide on this subject here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Im_cmlhBmQXC0ffl18Z18aOpI5gs_wCy2WcFL9_Re_c/edit?usp=sharing (scroll down to Using sprues efficiently)
  10. If the price is exactly $300, this means your model contains 40 loose shells (probably 39 small rivets that are not conntected). Since the pricing per part is $7.50 Feel free to share the Model ID's of your models and I'll be happy to check Models should have same pricing when uploading it multiple times Note that you actually do trade with Shapeways Inc (this has changed some years ago), the american parent company. Shapeways BV in Eindhoven only produces and ships parts but is not actually the company you do business with As for the pricing formula, there definitely is one But as you said, it's not doing that we intended it to do, causing some models to be way cheaper than they should be and some other models (which we like printing) being way more expensive. This is now being looked into, fingers crossed we will all benefit
  11. You're welcome! It pretty much boils down to: Primer - Sand down - Primer - Sand down etc etc. Repaiting this till you are satisfied with the result. Alternatively some people have used super glue (use gloves!) to rub the glue into the material, this will seal and strengthen the material. After this you can easily sand down the model to a smooth surface. But again, details will go missing. My recommendation of the day, have a look at this topic. I know it's in dutch, but just have a look at the pictures of the first 2 pages: https://forum.beneluxspoor.net/index.php?topic=87415.0 This person goes into detail how he is building a WSF (Versatile Plastic) dutch SLT train From sanding to painting. ^ That's all H0 1:87 v This is T 1:450
  12. Not sure if there is any interest in my 1:450 stuff, but I'll keep sharing. Here is the 1:450 dutch VIRM with working motor!
  13. Been a long time posting here. Currently working on my own layout (finally after so many years). It's the smallest scale out there: 1:450 Right now the base layout is ready (well the track is on the base) And separately I'm doing some tests like shown above with the printed objects as well as doing tests with ballast:
