As someone looking for a printer partner, this is so haphazard and terrible clunky for all involved. A spreadsheet that organizes all the info would be SO MUCH MORE useful. Here’s one as a starting point in case printers want to fill it in. I think it’d be so much more effective than an endless thread.
Love it! Couldn’t agree more!
This is great! I purchased a domain and my intention was to invite everyone to add their location onto a map. I would list everyone’s business name with a link to their website and sort by location so that anyone looking for a local print shop could check this map. I haven’t done much with it yet and may ask for some help and feedback, but this spreadsheet would be a good starting point for me to get those shops “on the map”. Maybe a column can be added to get permission to be placed on the map on my site. Let me know your thoughts! https://3dprintsites.com/

I like that idea, Julie! I added the column, and made a map. How come you’re not on the list?!
Are you planning to charge people to use the site/access print shops? Or more of a public service?
Voila! https://www.geosheets.com/map/s:LbmZmo69/U-S--3D-Printers
I am on this string way back in September, but will add myself to your spreadsheet when I get back home tomorrow.
I am not going to charge anyone, just have it be a public service. I will advertise the site whenever I get free Google or Bing ad dollars, and will promote on my business site, facebook, instagram, etc. I would hope that others would also share the site and advertise if they would like.
I just finished up an MIT certification course in additive manufacturing so I should have more free time to dedicate to getting this site going.

Hmmm. Boo. Google maps not automatically updating from the table. I’ll need to revisit this setup. Suggestions welcome. Fusion Tables was supposed to be a solution, but just yesterday Google announced it’s killing it off…

Here’s hoping this map works: Looks like we only get 50 views a day though on the free plan. https://www.geosheets.com/map/s:LbmZmo69/U-S--3D-Printers

Ok. One of you funny guys went in and deleted the entire sheet (and then put it back) just to prove the point that someone from the dark side — who was maliciously inclined — could mess with other printer’s entries.
So, the suggestion was to create a form to mostly prevent that. Here you go: U.S. 3D Printers
I have embedded your map into my website here: www.3Dprintsites.com so it should update when you add more points to the map!
I will tweak the site over the weekend and then will ask for feedback starting next week.

Hey Julie,
I’m an established 3d printer offering a One stop prototyping shop. Doing everything from idea generation to design work and manufacturing. I’m located in Azusa, CA near Los Angeles. I do FDM printing & Design work offering several filament types. Please add me to the list.
My site 3DPrintSites.com is currently on hold until I talk to an attorney. Someone pointed out that it could be a privacy violation by taking everyone’s name, email address, etc. and storing it on the hosting site and on the Google map. I may just have to put websites and a link to the general location, but again, I need to verify that i am not breaking any privacy act rules.
–Julie
