A double caged pendant with a few twists!
It contains an ambigram, made from two characters of your choosing.
The outer cage is connected to the ambigram,
which can rotate freely around the inner cage. (See the video!)

The used font is "Deja Vu Sans Mono".
I will do my very best to make each combination into a nice ambigram and make it fit snuggly inside the cage.
Leave a "remark for the designer" if you wish to see the model before I finalize your version.

It is also possible to use any symbol, model, logo you like, contact me with details and I'll make it happen!
I will add more examples over time.

Necklace not included.

Remnants of a foreign creature perhaps?
This shell only allows a glowing glimpse of what it holds inside.

A large and marveling light cover with a space in the middle with room for Luxeon LED's or other power-saving lights.
It hides the source from direct view resulting in a gentle glow emerging.

It arrived in WSF, and it works for real :-)
Gear system based on hypotrochoid shapes.
It is printed as a 9 piece puzzle, a VERY frustrating one at that ;-)

Depending on the print batch, it might need some minor sanding to make it run properly.

Steel available on request, still untested by me.
I think steel will work but probably needs some more sanding to make it fit.
With the new pricing scheme, the steel version is no longer available.
If you want one in steel, please send me a message and we will find a way.

A playful vase or flower pot.
Designed for Glazed Ceramics.
Made from a four generation binary tree,
with a two generation cavity.
This should allow full inside glazing.
It has not been printed yet, but I do not expect much trouble with this one.

4c9o virus [force nano virus]

Inspired by the intricate and beautiful shapes of viruses and bacteria.
Watch HD video above or check out some highres photo's.

Materials
Succesfully printed in White Strong & Flexible.
Dyed strong & flexible could is experimental and available per request.
A polished version is unlikely to survive the process.

History
The original model was created in 2006 for a 3d photo collage.
One of the goals was to create a life-like photograph of non-existent objects.
As, at the time, I was pretty sure this was an impossible to produce object.

Then I discovered shapeways ;-)
So now it was succesfully created in real 3d!

Specifications
It is solid to not compromise the design and the price difference was marginal.
Outer diameter is 8.5cm/3.3 Inch and the tips are 0.7 mm quickly becoming wider.
Which overall makes it quite sturdy.

Please be careful with unpacking though, it may be slightly tangled in the bubble wrap.
Then again, mine already survived a 1 meter/3 foot drop, however, I do not recommend that ;-)
It should be treated as a delicate decorative object, it is NOT a toy!
