Hi, anyone here could provide ABS prototyping services for my company? Please PM me the budgetary cost to print the size of 100mm W X 150mm L x 80mm H. The model must be air tight, and have some overhang feature, like: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:40903. Need to be done before March 2013. Hope someone could help.

Hey guys,
If you are interested in 3D printers, then join our small group of 3D printing fans. We are looking to gather together to build stuff and learn from one another. I think this is the only way that 3D printing can really take off in malaysia. 3Dprinting group Thanks |

Just FYI. Cannot find any reprap project at their website yet. |

It's quite slow for the 3D printing to get more publicity in Malaysia.
Not easy to source part is one of the main challenges over here. Erm, not really see a point to start a hackerspace in Malaysia yet... imo This post has been edited by storm88: Feb 19 2013, 03:03 PM |

QUOTE(daijoubu @ Jun 22 2012, 11:45 AM) I think that dude already been offered big money by corporations thats why not much updates from him. photoresist used in semicon are very toxic, and super expensive. They normally charge you extra handling fee for delivery. Some could cost up to $1 k usd for delivery only. Any photopolymer resin should be a good starting point, but gotta beware of the handling of such materials, especially the fumes they release. Besides that, they wont have as good mechanical properties as abs/pla, but at least DLP printing can allow for high resolution printing parts. I've tried searching for a photopolymer source before in malaysia, and there arent much. I read that some ink pad stamping companies might have em, but not much progress. Finally end in i settled for mendel They are not-so-toxic one, Aldrich® Negative Photoresist Kit I or Ethyl L-lactate from Sigma Aldrich, but i doubt it has enough mechanical strength for large object printing. Just get from overseas. they are plenty successful cases online. |

Added on June 22, 2012, 9:53 pm Yup, that's a micro CNC mill selling for more than RM5k. Just mount a motor on your RepRap and it get transformed to a CNC mill as well. I believe the photopolymer is the same type used for photolithography process in wafer fabrication. Anyone has contacts to wafer fab chemical supplier? Please report in yourself here.

Worth reading.
Enterprise-Class 3D Printers To Drop Under $2,000 By 2016, Says Report http://techcrunch.com/2013/03/29/enterpris...16-says-report/ At this point 3D printing still needs more than just a lower cost of entry. It needs an ecosystem. It needs a retail marketplace where designers can sell professional-level designs rather than just giving them away on Thingiverse. 3D printing needs local retailers and repair shops. It needs to make inroads into lower educational institutions (lower prices will help there). But 3D printing needs to get here. After all, it’s the future. |

I am surprise to know nobody owns a 3D Printer. I own a Makerbot TOM and have been printing prototypes for my personal projects. I am also building new machines.
