3D Printing

[Phillbert]

Hi guys with the progress of 3D Printing where you can print almost anything these days i was wondering what parts you think should be printed to help our Commodore Members out with there rides?

Bumpers and Spoilers are a bit big for what i'm thinking, more plastic parts you can't purchase.

So first off, does anyone do 3D Printing here?

Biggest issue printing things, say trim pieces, is matching the texture. You’re going to need to sand out the print lines, putty, prime and paint. This is going to be extremely smooth compared to the factory texture on most pieces.
You will need to print with ABS or TPU, a basic consumer printer won’t like it (need to be enclosed and vented, a bed and print head that run hot enough).
You could print things like gauge holders, etc that don’t need to necessarily match an existing texture.

I think it was Ritchie who had a few interior pieces done so far for a VX.
Seatbelt trim bits were one of them.

He hasn't been on here for over 5 years and last time I checked commodores plus it seemed like it had fallen over.
