What is broken on your piece ? Faceplates are interchangeable - Labophot, Optiphot, Metaphot, etc.

Hmm, my printshop is in my laundry room ...But perhaps your printshop uses printers that are faster and more reliable than ours?
Funny... I would put that the other way round. I made similar things - the epi-lamphouse for the optiphot with 3d-positionable back wall, for example - and cut it. Even not considering the heat of the lamp, I wouldn't have dreamed of printing such a thing.this model (I think) is too complex
I have 0% experience in the laser cutting, so I have to trust you ...iconoclastica wrote:I yield, nothing can beat the printer in your own laundry room . Time is not a factor then and once you get to know it well, you'll achief good results.

The machine that one uses most often soon starts to shape the imagination used in the design process. It's rather obvious in our workshop: people who often do laser- cutting think in flat pieces put together and those that do a lot of 3d-printing start thinking along those lines. Using both myself, I am getting better results with the former (and try to solve my design problems that way).
