Hi I'm Gordon, aka tootalltechie I want to get into 3D printing. I live in Canada. I'm into gas radio control boats, scale models, robotics, electronics, computers. I would like to develope parts to use in my hobbies. I have done some work with Google sketchup and posted the work there under tootalltechie. in the past i did a 3d rendering of a crane used on a ship, i am curently working on parts for a 1/8 scale "thunder boat" hydroplane. I've been thinking of getting into 3D modeling since the late 1990's.
Welcome! If you need any help getting your models from Sketchup to Shapeways, check out this article by denali3ddesign: https://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=11427& amp;start=0& Cheers, Bart
