Yola peoples,
Not too informal I trust? In response to your ideas and suggestions we tried to make our homepage clearer and prettier. We would like it to do justice to the beautiful things people make with Shapeways.
So check out the new Shapeways homepage and see if we did just that.
We've got some Cool Christmas Co-Creators, 3D printed Branding Iron and improved shipping times on Stainless Steel for you. And I must apologize for the next newsletter. We might send it seven days from now already. That’s a bit close and we don't want to be spammy, but..we have got some more cool news coming up so we thought you might like the update.
Question: how many new materials would you like to see over the next few months?
Which ones? Tell us here.
Kind regards,
Joris

+ Metal Shipping times Slashed to 14 working days
|
|
|
| Do you hate waiting 21 working days for your metal orders to arrive? The sheer volume of your Stainless Steel orders means investments have been made in the process. Due to this we can now cut delivery times to 14 working days. That means you can get more 3D printed Stainless Steel in less time. It is still a far cry from "Tea, Earl Grey, Hot" but it should mean that even more orders for birthdays and other events will be possible. If you order a Stainless Steel 3D printed Scarab beetle for $26 today, you will get it the 9th of December. |

+ 3D printed Branding Iron
|
|
|
 |
This is the craziest thing we've ever come up with. The Branding Iron Co-creators allow you to make your mark anywhere. Select a text or give us a link to your logo and we will turn it into a 3D printed branding iron. You can heat it with a lighter and then make your mark on the world. Or you can mark the part of the Turkey you would like to have at the Christmas dinner table. Check out more photographs of
3D printed branding here.
Or tell us what you think of the Branding Iron's on Twitter right now.

+ Bank Transfer
|
|
|
|
For those of you who do not want to pay using PayPal or a credit card with PayPal you can now use the bank transfer payment method. We had several requests for this so decided to implement it for you. Please note: we will start producing your models once the bank transfer clears. This might take 3 to four days so if you're in a rush paying with PayPal will still be quicker. But, if you're the one to order that $3500 twisty puzzle (some assembly required) we'd like to give you the chance to pay by bank.

+ Cufflink back in 3D Parts Database
|
|
|
 |
A few of you wanted to 3D model your own cufflinks and asked for our files. To accommodate you, you can now
download our Cufflink backs from the 3D Parts Database. With the FREE downloadable designs from the 3D parts database you are sure to have 3D printed and tested working parts to implement in your design.
