Key To My Heart by BJPentecost

Thanks. ^__^ I actually have a version for sale here: www.shapeways.com/model/181635… Unfortunately, it is too large and intricate to print up in any of Shapeway's metals atm but I'm working on a design that will be printable in metal.

Thanks. I will be putting it up in the Shapeways store soon. I want to test it out in brass if they ever get that option.

Thanks. I'll be sure to let you know when I open it to printing.

This was printed up in Frosted detail plastic and I printed up another version in SWF. I don't have a pic of that one atm but it didn't come out quite as good as the FDP.

WOW! XD *super-blush* That is.... I don't even know what to say. ^__^;

It can be a little bit pricey. Costs are based on material and volume so if you get a hollowed out model printed up in a cheaper material, you can drop as little as 12$. It really all depends on what you're getting printed up and in what material.

I am really happy to hear that. ^__^ I hope to begin making fantasy figurines and such.

Too.... many... ways.... I could..... go with... that......... Cannot..... compute! *explode*

^__^ That is very kind of you to say. I did make a little dingy-hole so she can hang it on a nail or from a chain if she wants to. I hope to get up enough money to see if I could print it up in real silver.

Heh. If you're serious, I will be putting it in my Shapeways store eventually. I want to shrink it a little bit to bring down the price so. I think 35$ is too much. Though thankfully, shrinking the model will bring the price down exponentially since price is based on volume of material.

That did cross my mind but I have NNNOOOO idea how to do that. Also, the material is plastic. I'd be afraid I'd hurt (melt or break) the plastic.

I am blushing so hardcore right now, I'm pretty sure I look like a stop sign. XD

It's awesome. I love 3D printing. My ultimate goal is to make fantasy figurines and print them up.

They were acrylic gems I got from Michael's. I had to cut some of them to fit. I also had to pull apart a decent amount of fake jewelry to get some acrylic gems that would fit the size of the holes I made in the key. I was lucky. I found a flower with elipsoidal gems that fit perfectly. Literally. All I had to do was glue them in. The heart was a little more difficult and I ended up having to pull it out in the end anyway. It ripped off a lot of the paint. What I would really love to do is see if I could print this up in silver and use real gems. WAY too expensive though. :\
