Subject: [O14] comparisoin of 3D printing processes requested To: O14@... Date: Thursday, June 9, 2016, 2:02 AM ?I have a 1/32nd Bagnall by Brack done in Shapeways FUD. The detail is great but there is a lot of stepping to deal with. I would only order 3d printed items in the future with a completely smooth surface. Regards, Craig Has anyone had any experience with 3D printing from cwrailways.com (owned by Time Evans)? He is offering a 16micron layers process and the photos show a reasonably smooth surface. By comparison has anyone had experience with Shapeways' "Frosted Extreme Detail" (16micron layers) or their "High Definition Acrylate" (50micron layers). With the little bit of 3D printing that I have done I feel a smooth surface with minimum "stepping" visible?on the layers is more important than actual minimum detail size. Previous experience with the Shapeways' "Frosted Ultra Detail" process also had a textured surface where the wax support structure was in contact with the model. Any comments on the quality/smoothness of the various processes or value for money is appreciated.
