    I would suggest do a mold for it. Than see if a machine shop would do it out of metal. Than do inject molding. The initial for metal might be little high in price. But it would pay of in the long run.

    Thank you that's at least a bit cheaper. Around 90$ for the two files.
    Man... didn't know 3D printing is so expensive, I mean I paid like 7$ for material and maybe 2-3$ for electricity for it.
    So hopefully those that are interested have their own 3D printer or at least know someone that could print it for them.
    Give them like 15-20$ to make it worth their while ;D

    I think that's way above my competence. I mean I know how to make things in 3D and how to operate my own printer, but that's about it^^
    And I bet we're talking about a few thousand $ for that kind of production.

    I would buy the hell out of this as a production piece. No access to a 3d printer :(

    If anyone printed one of these and no longer needs/wants it, PM me. I will happily purchase one.

    This is fantastic! Great work!

    Makes me almost want to track down all those little Prime Master things that I skipped when they were at retail.

    Google 3d printing services for those that don't have access to a printer. You'd have to buy the files first, or someone who has them could have a look. I used one before I bought mine that you put the models online and could search people who just print for you and set their price kind of like fiverr for 3d printing. It's why I never put anything on shapeways. The cost just to get a test version is insane. Might be being UK based that makes this worse though.

    And that is beautiful work!!
