Trying to find someone to print

[Shibby90441]

Im trying to find someone who is willing to print a copy of the third man helmet from destiny, it will be for use and will have to be strong and durable. I will be using this every so often since I will be using it to cosplay, after some modifications are made to it and I paint it. I would like to know how much I should be looking for to pay for this. All the quotes I get seem to be around the £600 mark and that is with it to scale. I find it hard to believe it would be that otherwise I would just buy my own printer. I’ve attached some of the bigger parts. Anyone able to give me a quote? The order of size being :

467 cm3 head piece 1 (9).stl

423.2 cm3 head piece 5(10).stl

375.4 cm3 head piece 4 (8.5).stl

305.9 cm3 head piece 3 (7).stl

282.6 cm3 head piece 2 (6) r .stl

And some small bits (x6) that all are around:

0.2 cm3

jaw clip right.stl

jaw clip left.stl

eye clip left.stl

eye clip right.stl

back clip left.stl

back clip right.stl

If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it I have something else I want printed but I will wait till I see the price on this to see if I will get it done or not. Thanks again!

Hey Shibby,

best,

Semra

Yes we can help you with this wots ur dead line thanks

[3dreamprint]

Hi @Shibby90441, are all the required parts listed in your post above or are there others additional to these?

[Shibby90441]

All the parts are there

[Shibby90441]

Deadline is whenever, though I would like it soon. I’ve got a lot of free time soon, I finish uni untill September soon so to have this will be a nice little side project to keep me busy, while Ive got some free time. I plan to paint it, put LEDs in the eyes. Also hope to work on/find other projects to do aswell

[MADEJUST4ULTD]

Ok cool wot did you wnt to pay I will work with you thanks

[3dreamprint]

Great, we can help you with that, obviously lower than £600 which you quoted there. Drop me a PM if you’d like and we can talk about the prices etc.

[Shibby90441]

I’ve no clue what a project like this would cost as it is one of my first. I’m just looking to get a quote for the project and if I can afford it I will order, otherwise I will keep the quote in mind, I would love to have this to work on, but I have other bills to pay, so I will come back to it when I can afford it. One of the reasons I posted this was because someone advertised that prices might not be accurate.

200 all in with post

[3dreamprint]

@Shibby90441, how would £190 sound for that?

[Shibby90441]

I will have to contact you in a few weeks. £190 is a little bit out of my budget at the moment. I’ll contact you when I have it set aside 2-3 weeks at least. Also I will have to check round a bit more. I generally had no clue what this would cost me so I’ll probably look at some more quotes for now. Thank you for the quick reply. Sorry if I wasted your time.

[3dreamprint]

No worries @Shibby90441, you will regularly get much higher quotes since the volume of the print is quite high, we are even going below regular pricing since it is an interesting project! Looking forward to hearing from you once you have though about it.

Hi there! I’ve done some cosplay stuff for a friend of mine, also with included electronics (LEDs and stuff). I can print in a wide range of materials for a fair price. With a large build volume I’m sure, that all parts are printable. I can’t give you a concrete pricing now, but to discuss details and price estimations, please start an enquiry on my hub: www.3dhubs.com/siegen/hubs/Marius Cheers, Marius Breuer
