The New 3D Printing Thread

Hi Super,

I read it as physical shell prints that you're buying, which makes the site even more suspect because if they are of the sort of quality shown in the photos they are suspiciously cheap.  Also if they were to sell the files you can bet that those same files would soon show up on sites such as Thingiverse or other sites pop up selling the same physical models.  

This is the one drawback to 3D printing if you are someone looking to make some money out of it, you need to guard your design files as though they are gold as once you let them out of your control you will likely never make much out of them again.  Either that or spend the rest of your life trying to sue people who are re-selling or re-using the files to copy your work.  Mind you in this case you could argue that this guy is infringing FP's or Tomica's copyrights, let alone the owners of the Thomas intellectual rights.  It's why Hornby no longer makes Thomas themed models as they gave up the licence due to the cost which was subsequently picked up by Bachmann.

Hi there! Im Jason, co-owner of magicjayroadprints. This is not really set up as a business, I talk about this in streams-

Here I explain why I have things priced so low and I included photos of the progress of models. I made the site to offer a cheap alternative to Shapeways, We make the models of the IRL alternatives to replace the already made tomy models, I can see where everyone may not trust the site, but I can show proof of where the money goes back into the models and that I do ship the models out. i just shipped a model out today. Also, i saw talk about the Edward/Oliver siderods, I do have those ready to put up on the site!
