3D Hubs Print Button available to all Thingiverse Designers!

Filemon · 2016-04-12T20:02:05.000Z

Hi guys,

Just got in touch with Thingiverse and this is what they told me; “yes, designers can leave their things as non commercial but manually enable commercial apps like 3d hubs if they so choose”

I think that’s very good news. Does that solve your concerns?

Cheers,

Filemon

Big thump up.

That’s what we wanted.

Another step towards the future of 3D printing! Great job guys.

Yay! I hope this works out for everyone it’d giver people an incentive to use local services and perhaps buy things they wouldn’t otherwise! Great job guys!

Hey Filemon,

Is today the big day?

Cheers,

Marc

Not yet, I have my eyes on Thrusday (don’t take this as a confirmation just yet)

marcnicol · 2016-04-26T13:14:38.000Z

OK, I’ll keep my fingers crossed

marcnicol · 2016-04-29T18:52:01.000Z

Hey Filemon,

So far so good. Things are going well. I’ve already had 2 orders in the last 24 hours and both are printable (lol). First one is ready to ship and the second one is happily printing away.

I have a quick question though.

How do you gauge the number of orders a hub can handle? I only have one “Thingiverse” printer, but I have three physical machines so there’s plenty of capacity.

Cheers,

Marc

It’s still not working with NC licensed parts.

Filemon · 2016-05-02T08:01:13.000Z

Hi Marc,

We don’t really. It’ essentially based on your own feedback.

So, if you receive an order on your printer, it’s not that we send the next to someone else.

Hope that explains!

Filemon · 2016-05-02T08:02:40.000Z

If I’m not mistaken, NC parts need to be approved by the designer him/ herself in order for the print button to appear.

Have you looked into that?

marcnicol · 2016-05-02T08:30:30.000Z

Thanks Filemon.

3Dhubs app is not available for NC parts. If i change the license the app is available…

Maybe i did something wrong or don’t see the right way. Actually it occurs to me that i will not work with NC-parts.

Filemon · 2016-05-06T11:13:20.000Z

Hi guys, can you confirm the App is working for NC licenses as well? thx!

marcnicol · 2016-05-06T13:45:42.000Z

Hey Filemon,

It works with non-commercial items, but, as I would expect, it’s not enabled for NC items by default. You need to go to MakerBot account and click the checkbox next to the item that you want to enable the app on.

I’ve just run through it with one of my designs and it seems to work ok for me.

Cheers,

Marc

Thanks alot.

This works. I just didn’t find this page to enable this.

Filemon · 2016-05-06T14:58:36.000Z

Perfect! thx Marc
