I've ordered TT scale trucks from Shapeways before. The white material is
plenty strong enough, it is slightly flexible and cuts about the same as
styrene. The only problem is the shapeways method leaves tiny bumps all over
the part so it is not so good for things that need to be smooth but it should
be fine for something rough like weathered trucks.They include postage with
their price and apparently any other fees too as my UPS guy just leaves them on
the doorstep.The shipping from the Netherlands is very fast, I got them sooner
than expected....dave
