>can I print overseas for cheap ?
Sure. Can you ship it from overseas for cheap? Not unless you don't mind getting it 2 months later.

How much printing do you do and what quality does it need to be? Its not that hard to learn and you can get used Makerbots/Ultimakers on the cheap. Additionally, if you need to print parts that are harder wearing then look into a second hand Stratasys Uprint.

thats the point , I don't mind mostly.
If I need something quick I need to pay for that.

but something just need to be done with much of a deadline.

I did some printing at my university and I'd love to do it my selfe.
that would probably be quite the gamechanger.
however.
fdm printed parts need quite a lot of finishing and the sls printed (and somethimes barrel sanded (isthis the right word)) parts are quite expansive.

if you could get a small fdm desktop printer for like 200 € that isn't total shit, I'd totaly get it.

Why not ask this bod of yours for the company he ordered from and see if they do mail order?

Google for 3D rapid prototyping china

na they're printing in house.
they do lot's of rapid prototyping.
I like doing buissnes with them , but If I could fart out low cost prints for not that much money , It could be a gamechanger for me.

>>1010920

ups I just now got what you ment.
they sadly only do milling.
should talk to him anyway , he can speak chinese

something that's crossed my mind before, are there any foam milling services that mill real objects ?
real objects like in , for example a cone from a block ?
is it even financially feasible ?
