Shapeways Discount

**guthroth** · 04-13-2015 13:38

This came through to me so I will share. Enjoy !

"Last week, Shapeways.com had some technical issues that caused many of you to have challenges using the site. Our team was working around the clock to find and fix the cause of the issues, and I'm pleased to say that we did. I know that many of you were affected while Shapeways wasn't working as expected, and am deeply sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

As a thank you for being so understanding with us and patient during what proved to be a challenging time at Shapeways, I am offering everyone 10% off of their next Shapeways order. Just use code THANKYOU10 at checkout, and feel free to share this code with your customers, family, and friends. It's valid on any order through next Monday, April 20th.

Our community is the heart of Shapeways and what keeps us motivated each day. I love seeing the designs you make, and the new products that come out of our 3D printers every day. So keep on creating, and I'll keep working to bring you the best 3D printing technology out there.

Thank you,

Peter Weijmarshausen
CEO, Shapeways "

Got an email this evening on that too. Another wallet piercing info.

I have been collating a club order for about 20 aircraft so it's come in just right for us

**Teaticket** · 04-13-2015 16:03

Even though I still have an ample supply of Shapeways to paint, I have to take advantage of this discount.

I received one, too - the guys and I were thinking about placing and order, and I think this news has just solidified that fact!

All the best,
Matt

Small plunge taken - ordered the French and German aerodromes from Reduced Aircraft Factory (no painting required!).

Nice, I have my eye on those too.

**Flying Helmut** · 04-14-2015 12:10

I too received the email.
Oh well, I suppose it would be rude to not indulge!

**Teaticket** · 04-14-2015 12:47

Don't you have enough already to repaint since falling into the Dark Side?

Moi aussi. As you say, it would be rude to refuse.

Resistance was futile

, so I now have more Albatros D.III's heading my way, all I can do now is pray that I get to my order before the swmbo does

Best of luck!

**Baron Rolf** · 04-14-2015 13:41

Tim I've also got an OOP Flight of the Giants coming as well so I could be in for a very interesting time explaining my purchases to the wife.

**Flying Helmut** · 04-14-2015 14:10

**Lt. S.Kafloc** · 04-19-2015 12:51

Great minds Mark. Just ordered 5 DIII's and a 5o4k plus some standy up gunners. Had to hand over the petty cash tin though! swmbo was behind me as I ordered and I still haven't been forgiven for the kickstarter either.

Deep Poo Poo.

**Lt. S.Kafloc** · 04-19-2015 12:52

and let's hope she doesn't find out about the AIM order either. Might be cashiered before I get them!

**guthroth** · 04-19-2015 13:03

I snuck in a second order as well. 'Er indoors is better off left in ignorance

**Flying Helmut** · 04-19-2015 15:44

Order placed!

**Boney10** · 04-19-2015 16:02

ooh do I get another Freidrichshaven, also would like a couple of Fokker D1 and an Avro.
Drat looks like I need to do a stealth op to get past SWMBO

**matt56** · 04-19-2015 17:38

I second the 'order placed' notion! Finally getting some pilots and observers, along with some other tasty bits and bobs...

Thanks for the discount, Shapeways!

All the best,
Matt

I'm glad you like them, Bill! They look even better with a light matte overspray to eliminate any gloss from the material.

I've been kicking around the idea of doing some additional ground targets, such as a railroad station, but my hands are full of other things at the moment.
