It's clever stuff, this 3D printing mullarkey, but it's not all plastic guns and cutting-edge objets d'art.

If you manage to break one (or both!) of those plastic headlight retaining arms on your Ami then how about a pair of new arms hot off the printer?

Looking great,,, I did some research at internet about 3D printers, making inletmanifolds aso.

At dealextreme they start at 369 euro....

Which printer do you have????? foto's pics and moneywise...

How much work is it to get a lampholder as you made (making the G code I mean)....

I wish I did have this sort of talent! :oops:

I found these on sculpteo via a mention on the (now dead) french Ami club forum.

My drawing mate and i are thinking about 3D printing for all sorts of jobs,
Cyclone for the sand blaster and
Possible test case is for the new GSA diff (before i get a mould made for the Ali casting)
That way i could iron out any issues for the mounting brackets / brake caliper fitting etc
possibly saving lots of time

i hope to go to a firm in UK in 2 weeks to check them out for commercial use,
but i am thinking in excess of 3000 pounds for a commercial quality printer.
Ahhh

I'd recommend http://www.3trpd.co.uk, it's not cheap but it's good quality.
I can produce the CAD model(s) if anyone needs, if you can provide a sketch or its a part I have and can measure. Then you can send it to the above for a free quote.
