hi folks!
i have done a 3d project in tinkercad.com. … basically it is sheet (with some reinforcements and some details in its center and corners), and the specs below…
130cm x 85cm x 6cm …
the problem is… at the first moment i ll need 10, or 20 pieces made by a strong and lightweight material … and later, i will need more and more…
i tought that i could make it become reality by printing a 3d prototype model, and them trying to have the model duplicated in carbon fiber, or fiberglass … (the material must be a little bit resistent, strong, and lightweight)
Anyone would know where i would start to make my project real?
thanks everybody!!

Hello!
What should it be used for?
Finding a 3d-printer with a build table that large will probably be a slight problem, and judging from your picture, it looks like a nightmare to manufacture from sheet material. However, I think that this would be the easiest way to do this, and it should be possible as long as the material doesn’t have to be solid 6 cm thick (depending on what i should be used for, I’m thinking something along the lines of aluminium side panels and a hollow center with something to keep the sides from collapsing).
If you need any more help, please contact me on my hub (I’m very used to working with sheet metal and plastics, and with some imagination most shapes are possible to create…)
hi there !!! would you add me on whatsapp?

(or, +55 55 9 9115 9889)
this is a project that i am developing.
it will be a panel, that will be placed in a window, with acoustic protection, …
i plan to sell hundreds of these panels here in brazil! … seems to be a huge market oportunity …
but firts, i need to develop the prototype …
Hi!
if you could send me an email to bo.oscar.svensson(at)gmail.com along with a description of what it’s supposed to do I’ll have a look to see how I can help you. Sound dampening shouldn’t be that hard to accomplish. The easiest way should probably be to make a shell and fill with some kind of felt or foam. Probably easier than making the whole thing in one piece.

If you plan on mass production, you may want to consider an injection molded part. I have worked with a place called ProtoLabs.com, they can take an STL file and create a limited run mold that they can make runs up to 100k parts. Check out their site to see.

Is this something that could be cut on a cnc machine?
