To make map pockets would require a pretty big printer. It'd also require a fair amount of finishing, I'm under the impression that printed stuff has a texture where the layers come together. I'd think it'd be better/easier to cast a new one.
At some point it seems like somebody ought to be making a living doing this stuff. Maybe if Dad buys the farm next to ours and I finally get frustrated with high-tech I'll move north and build a little manufactory to make small run bits like that. -Curt Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 20:15:28 -0800 From: OK Don <okd...@gmail.com> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] slow list today Message-ID: <CANZcij9tO3G3cNSU4=uytlrhjhfwhu_-ymwqb5p5pjytq9t...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Ah! You need a 3D printer - make a new one.
