  • Marius - I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. Can you email me at markgrigsby @ msn.com? Thanks! Mark

  • Marius - I just replied to your other message, but I did think about having just a few designs and putting a sticker on the top. I wanted something that looked a little more professional and, as someone who is in business, I don’t want something people can just print another label for and stick it …

  • Marius - Thanks for your reply. You are correct in that I don’t have a 3D printer and would want these things made for me. The 3D model isn’t a problem. It will be quite annoying to change that 3D model 4000 times, but once its done, its done. If I ever need more than 1000 of a single cap you are r…

  • I don’t think painting is going to give me the effect I want. And, I’m concerned that it would wear off and the customer would be left with a dud! Keep running it through your mind and let me know if you come up with anything. What I really want is that new HP 3D printer that is going to have about…

I agree that the color for the letters shouldn’t go all the way through the disk part. I initially wanted a domed top, but gave that up…

  • MP - I don’t think injection molding is the right answer because I have 4000 different iterations of this thing and a fairly low volume. So, to me, this seems like a perfect application for a 3D printer if I can get the resolution right. I looked at your instructable for converting an inkjet print…
