What Could Possibly Be Next?
We are about to launch yet another new material on Shapeways this week so you better get your CAD fingers ready and start thinking what you can do with this awesome material, never before seen on Shapeways…
What could it be?
What will you make?
When will it launch? Very soon……
“Introducing Glazed Ceramics” ?
hi res wax..
Introducing Glace Cherries
To be honest, I must say the picture was much sharper when I wrote my first comment…
I agree, now it looks like a birthday cake for Android.
Someone on the Shapeways Facebook Page posted a way to see it so I tweaked the distortion a little π
Old image is still available with less ‘R’ on filename π
And yes, I think you’re right with text π
“Introducing Silicone (and in a thinner font to fit the ‘image’)Rubber”..
Oooh, keep them coming π
Wax! Wax! Please make it wax!!
As a relative ‘newbie’ .. I assume that the Hi-Res Wax request .. that would be for lost investment castings?
1mm-wall-thickness-anywhere stainless steel
or
something completely different π
It must be Titanium!
Hi res wax!?
Upsidasium

So we can print big trouble for Moose and Squirrel.
Chocolate! – Just kidding… π Hhmm, let’s see… My guess is GOLD – not that plated gold stuff that I won’t ever buy again…

cor blimey guv, 3d printed chocolate is old hat – http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-chocolate-printer-made-from-LEGO/ π
2nd – ‘guess’ from me – Introducing ce mazed garlic
In keeping with the previous Blog posting that I think was a clue – 3D printed HAM !!
Woo Hoo! Ham!
Oooh, the suspense is killing us … please tell us! π
Didn’t you read previous posts? π
Oh, I get it. ANOTHER New Material Not About To Hit Shapeways …
In one hour, all will be revealed…
I hope some material that will glow in the dark =D that would be pretty cool!
or life tissue.. so we can make our own limbs or other living things?
Something to do with Friday the 13th perhaps?
Printing with broken mirrors π
Surface area calculation now needed…I’m thinking metal-coated hi-res wax printing.
unobtainium?
It would be great if you guys could put out the new requirements (wall thickness, etc) ahead of time so we can start working on pieces to be ready the day the new material is announced. π
Polished opaque ivory ultra detailed. (that’s my wish……)
Hhm, ground up ivory powder! I’m thinking the elephants and rhinos might be a little p***ed at that! π
hmmm, 3D printed ivory would be a little too un-p.c.
but ceramic must be kinda close?
Ivory as a color, not a material…..
yes. exactly. thank you.
Hahaha, I see… gotta be specific, you know π
