That's encouraging news. Here's hoping their new business model includes dealing with small producers and makers. I read on that forum that such people got a positive response  from them so I wonder if they are looking for feedback from potential new or returning customers/'shop' owners?

I uploaded an STL file to JLC3DP and placed an order for some finger tightening screws. It was £10.59 for 20 of them including postage and VAT (£4.77 for the actual printing).




I might try again to have a locomotive body shell printed. They are not really set up to print fine detail on models (particularly thin sections) but I have a Tebee loco STL that just about passes their checks.
