This little guy I made because I could nowhere find any cufflinks about technical stuff of airplanes except some that where whole airplanes. It is supposed to look like a GE90's fan. Obviously a real GE90 jet engine has much thinner fan blades and also a spiral on the so called spinner cone that is not actually recessed or elevated but only painted on it. Also The real fanblades have no marks in them. They do have a titanium leading edge though, whereas the rest is made from carbon and other stuff. The mark in my cufflink model does however give it a real charakteristic look I find.
Hopefully someone shares my enthusiams and interesd in aerospace engineering and would like to have a pair of these. Thank's for coming to whoever reads this.

This is the GE 90 fan cufflink with a bit of the casing. It's actually not the fan containment but part of the nacelle, which is actually much longer at the front. Since you couldn't see the fan anymore I made the lip of the nacelle close to the blades though. So scientifically this is inacurate but I made it for anyone who prefers the blades to be closed up by a smooth surface.
This cufflink is about 20mm total. That is why the fan itself is smaller than on the original cufflink that doesn't have the containment.
I have all my jet engine cufflinks with and without containment.

I made this cufflink on request of a shapeways user, who ordered my GE90 fan cufflink.
I write this to let you once more know that I am even happy about orders or wishes from anyone who likes my work. If I think your whish is doable and/or worthwhile, I might create it.
Making this entire cufflink took me less than one hour which is good, even for me. ;)
This is the fan (big propeller if you will) from a Rolls Royce RB211 variant civil jet engine. The ring you see at about 2/3 radial position of the blades are so called midspan shrouds. They are supposed to absorb any shocks and vibrations and give the fan more strength. Modern high tech engines don't have these because they are aerodynamically unwanted. I suppose they serve a supporting purpose on the mere cufflink as well. :)
The fan has a diameter of 20mm. The pin is 15mm long and 2,5mm thick. The blades have a thickness of 0.55mm. The back is 11mm in diameter, which is the size of a usual button.

A steak cufflink.
I know the idea exists. I had it and googlet it to check and unfortunately I saw I wasn't the first. I decided to create my personal one anyway.
It features a lovely cuttlery detail on the back of the pin. Pin itself is 2.5mm wide so should be stable enough.

Yet another cufflink I made. This one is smaller than the others but still most massive. The cube is 1,5 x 1,5 x 1,5 cm, but it's a cube, so probably a big cufflink. The twisted version exists too. I prefer keeping them seperate though. Any combination or spares can be ordered that way.

The normal version without twisted layers exists too. I prefer keeping them seperate though. Any combination or spares can be ordered that way.

Another cufflink! This one is a huge flatscreen. The back of the cufflink's pin features a little, simple remote control. The flatscreen is 20mm broad, which is the largest dimension of this object.

Remember that you can whish for any size of an object you like in my shop and in some short time I will contact you and probably do it.

This is my newest cufflink.
It's a piston rod. The counter part of the cufflink is designed the way it is to show strong similarity to the special screws that assemble the two halves of the piston rod. I have detailed renderings of those screws uploaded too. I think they are a great detail to this model and should therefore be recognized in the design of the counter part. The counter part is 1cm diameter by the way, so even though it is round it should go through the hole of a shirt easily but not be able to fall out.


Note that this cufflink has a round pin. I was to lazy to make new renderings, so there is still a hexagonal one in the pics.

Shop Details
One of my biggest hobbies since I am 14 has been 3D modelling. I have been aware of shapeways for a long time and now uploaded my first models. This shop won't earn me much profit because I don't want much. It just gives me the feeling of having an actual place here on this website. Most of the stuff I will upload will somehow have something to do with engineering, ecpecially aerospace. If you are interested in my stuff or get ideas I haven't had or want models in other sizes, just ask! I can do a lot and would maybe like a challenge. Thanks for coming here and have fun, Leander
