Hello Everyone

I am considering the sourcing of a 3D printed or milled plastic part in small numbers to start (prototype first). I consider my information proprietary, so any particpating party/supplier must be willing to sign a non-disclosure agreement and a non-competition agreement.

The approximate dimensions for the final product are as stated in the title, but here they are again:
2.5" Deep X 7.25" Wide X 7.25" Long

If you are interested and have the capabilities of working with these dimensions, either make a post here or send me a private message.

    Bruce,

    Any Prusa Mendel Reprap should do it. Build area is about 8" x 8" x 5.5".

    7 working days until mine arrives (touch wood).

    regards

    3D printing a part that size on a Prusa is hard. Even though the bed is 8x8, the extruder has to be mounted a certain way in order for something of that size to fit. Also, getting a part of that size to consistently print without warping takes a well calibrated printer.

    I have access to a 3D printer and CNC equipment. Let me know if I can help you.
