  Samc99us,
  
  Aquaddict,
  I'd be happy to share the .stl file with you...if you'd like to shoot me a PM with your email, I can email it to you.
  

  
  
  Hi,
  I sent you a PM, not worries if you have just been to busy to send the stl files, just following up in case you didnt received the PM or your email went missing.
  
  Many thanks,
  
  Anthony

  i would luv to get my hands on some 3d parts files. If you all are willing to share. I will gladly be custodian and offer them up free to all that want them. Not looking to make money here just support our hobby\passion...BTW, some of you may know me as the guy who digitized and uploaded all the G-Cat data a couple years back...hows that for street cred? LOL Maybe our good host will start a section for them as well as i do believe this is the future. I just got 2 rolls of thulman alloy 910 so need to do some design work before i can do anything practice with it as far as the boat projects go but will be making upgraded parts for my printer from it ASAP.

  Is the original poster still on here? I sent a message a few weeks ago and never got anything back. Was curious what file type you needed for the printer. stl, g code, etc

  Hey Eric,
  
  I've started modeling a new foil bottom bearing (modeled after the N17 replacement bearing) for my A-Cat. Would you be interested in printing them for me? The nylon / carbon is exactly what I'm looking for. Shapeways, Stratasys, et al don't seem to offer a composite option yet. Name your price or I could offer some 3D modeling in exchange?
  thanks!
  daniel

  RE: 3d scanning - photogrammetry can get you shockingly close, with some re-modeling and calibration with physical measurements, which you have to do with laser scans anyway. Happy to give it a shot if you have a part you'd like to replicate.
