How to manage your shop

At Shapeways, our Shop Owners are our lifeblood: they create awesome content for our community members, push the limits on what our printers are capable of, and demand the best from us so that they can provide their customers with the most amazing products possible. We know it's challenging to navigate the new space of 3D Printing and establishing your Shapeways Shop.
