I have had a Front & Rear cart shell printed with Shapeways, got it last week, had to sort some other stuff before i could assemble it but heres some pics.
Quality is ok, it feels a little lightweight and like its gonna crumble in your fingers but it flexes and is actually quite strong. The cart inner fitted well, I should take some inner pics as the awesome pcb Minstorm made is also red and black and the whole thing looks real neat.
I need to tweak the model a little, it needs the hooks adding to the upper inner edge, noticed them missing when my parts arrived, they still work ok, I got email off efrog about this on the models i sent him and will get it sorted in the next few days and send him new models, so I would say if anyone is gonna get some done, hang fire til i got the models sorted.
Now i have only had a front & rear done, not the connector or dust cap so not sure on how they will come out but I’m quite happy with the shell.
(oh man i should have posted this on Sunday and done a double bluff April Fools, slacker)

No joke here, its the real thing, I’ll open it up and take some inner pics later.
