This is really a continuation of a forum thread<\/a> where I may have complained too much about the quality of the recent shapeways prints I received.<\/p>\n

The Heart Shape Ring<\/h2>\n

\"Lumpy<\/a>
Lumpy rings...<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"More<\/a>
More rings together...Notice the inconsistencies in heart shapes and that there is excess material within some of the heart cutouts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
A close up of the 'silver' one where I used some 'Rub & Buff' silver leaf paint applied using my fingertips. A lot of hand-washing afterward. Notice the ring just on the right and the 'blob' of excess material on the right side of it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Showing the deformation on the other side of that blob.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Rings<\/a>
Rings in a line. Notice the two right most rings I<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"The<\/a>
The reverse side of the iris. Notice there is absolutely no gap\/separation\/distinction between the two inner\/outer rings, it just looks like a frisbee....<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"A<\/a>
A little chip on a support rib...no matter...<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Top<\/a>
Top side of the iris. You can see a 'hint' of the blades in the centre but they're all fused together.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Another<\/a>
Another bottom side, you can see part of the blades through those holes on the bottom.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Top<\/a>
Top side at an angle...Nothing new<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The miniature trebuchet…<\/h2>\n

I had a model ready to print, infact I was going to order it before I received these but thought I’ll wait to check the clearances work.\u00a0 Lucky I didn’t order it yet… I hope Shapeways figures out what’s wrong with the latest batch of prints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
