    Hello!

    If you're looking for Python bindings for the Shapeways API you might find this project useful:

    https://github.com/pauldw/shapeways-python

    It's in development / unstable at the moment (hence the 0.x.x version), but it has a developer console that makes experimenting with the API pretty easy.

    I've used it as part of a program to generate/upload molecule models ( https://www.shapeways.com/shops/mostlymolecules ).

    I might forget to monitor this forum. You can email me at pwalker@fvml.ca or I'm @justanotherpaul on Twitter if you need assistance.

    Thanks for sharing Paul!

    Are you using this in a stand-alone environment, or in other apps like Blender?

    Cheers,

    Bart

    I use it from the Python REPL, but with some other code so that I can type
    Code:
    add_molecule("acetic acid")
    and the corresponding molecule model gets uploaded to my Shapeways store. That code is here: https://github.com/pauldw/mostlymolecules .

    I don't use Blender myself . Is a shapeways module something that should be integrated with Blender?
