Shapeways changed EVERYTHING! - Out of business now.

SHAPEWAYS has officially closed. And left a lot of people in the lurch, which is really disappointing. None of the below links will work anymore.
Watch me talk about bridging the gap between scale-accurate looks and competition-specific trucks. We all want to look good, but competing at the same time usually meant compromise, and with this specific build, I've tried to do balance myself on the edge of both.
Shapeways is a 3D printing company based in NYC, offering high resolution prints in a variety of materials - these are not your home, consumer-grade printers! You want a print in nylon, great! How about precious metals? No problem! They can do it all, and at a reasonable price and timeline. There's some amazing people, making some amazing parts and accessories for our scale building obsession. Here's just a few:

Enjoying the videos you are putting out. I’m new to the hobby and finding them helpful.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Welcome to the hobby! Thanks for watching and I'm glad you find the videos helpful!

[@chc.coreyhallcustoms2434]

I just met James at Axialfest 2017. He and his family really are great people. Our sons became instant friends, next thing I know my son ditched me. Couldnt keep those two apart. It was so nice to see such great family atmosphere at that event.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Ha! That's amazing! That's what this hobby is all about, bringing people together. So nice. Thanks for watching!

[@KnightCustoms]

Thanks Corey, it was fun hanging with you and your son. Yes those kids definitely hit it off.

[@thatsmyrc]

Thats a sweet build! I had a 1983 SR5 Toyota 4x4 as a young buck with 38" it was geared etc and let me tell you that truck was a tank and could go anywhere. Ran the crap out of that truck went through a few 2.2 motors and a tranny but I still miss that little beast! Great mpg also lol This truck reminded me of mine, awesome build and video big thumbs up!

[@scalebuildersguild]

They were awesome little trucks. Wish I could find a clean one today to build up! Thanks for watching!

[@DeadnCold]

Another great seller on Shapeways for scale stuff and everything classic Tamiya is AMPRO engineering. He also has a KZbin channel showing off all his stuff. His interior for the Traxxas Bronco is absolutely amazing.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Yes, he’s also a Vendor on the SBG!

[@TomsRCScalers]

Thank you Matthew for this video, great idea to talk about Shapeways. RC scale building nowadays wouldn't be the same without Shapeways and all the guys who are sharing their phantastic construction work with the rest of us over this printing store. I love it! 👍👍

[@scalebuildersguild]

You're totally right! Thanks so much for watching!

[@OldIronRC]

Very nice stuff. I was not a fan of 3d printed stuff at first. I didn't like the ribbing artifacts of the print process, but it has really come a long way now, very detailed. The more I see the more excited I get about the technology and the RC hobby.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Wait until you see the latest printers from HP that Shapeways is using now! Thanks for the feedback!

[@skinanbonesOG]

Another great video, i remember when James was just starting out on the guild designing parts. He has really stepped up his game the last year or two and it's nice to see his success.

[@scalebuildersguild]

And there's still more room for success, as there's always new ideas coming! Thanks for watching!

[@KnightCustoms]

Thanks Craig, that's cool of you for saying so.

[@mje19D]

The twisted wires under the brake master cylinder is so badass. The whole build is next level but that little detail made it over the top for me!

[@benada83]

Wow. The paint and well.... everything just makes your whole truck look awesome. Great job.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks! It's not paint though, lexan vinyl wrap.

[@joss67uk]

Awesome job on the SR5 there and love the engine bay... I have the Knight Customs (from Shapeways) rear lights and inner wheel wells for my SCX10 II XJ body, they look great and quality is fantastic.I'm in the UK and they shipped from Europe so shipping was cheaper than from the USA and no import duty. I think the whole concept of Shapeways is a great idea. While a hard bodied truck is on my new wish list I'm really thinking of a Proline SR5 or a Axial JK body just because of what Knight Customs has to offer for those bodies...

[@scalebuildersguild]

That's great, thanks for watching! It's pretty amazing that with a few simple parts added on to a lexan body, you can create something that almost looks like a hard body. I should have mentioned that Shapeways has a European office as well. Thanks for watching!

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Wow! That's one cool looking truck! Love the realistic look to it! I wish I had that kind of talent! Skills and patience! Mine never comes out that sweet, I have tried! But I don't have the steady hands and the vision that I use to have when I was younger. Nice work man!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks very much! All it takes is time and effort, and anybody can have something turn out as good as their imagination will allow! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for sharing the code. Hopefully it works for some.

[@mikeburgessrc5360]

I still amazed that they are printing metal. I'm a CNC op. & I know a little cad & programming too. So I have a general idea of the tech but to print a finished metal product off a 3D printing it's incredible.

[@scalebuildersguild]

It's a pretty cool process. They have a demo of it somewhere on their site I believe, and not as complicated as you might think! Cheers!

[@whatever9283]

How do you have your rear shocks mounted because I’m having trouble with trying to mount the body close enough to the chassis but the rear shock towers get in the way. The budget series is cool!

[@scalebuildersguild]

I'm using a Knight Customs drop-bed that has an area cut out for the shock towers, then cleverly hid them from view. Using the drop-bed allows for a much lower than stock bed. Thanks for the question!

[@whatever9283]

Scale Builder's Guild Thanks!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Awesome, thank you!

[@shanecole8919]

Oh man. Who doesnt remember playing the 4 way arcade game of Ivan "The Ironman" Stewart. This body brings back memories. I hope Neill starts putting those skinz in production. They are not available now.

Shapeways is a great site. It seems they are always to the rescue when I need an oddball part. They are also much quicker than even they say.. I've never had to wait the estimated time.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Same, the service is fantastic. Can't wait to get the next round of parts from my friends at Shapeways and Knight Customs. Thanks for watching!

I still can't believe thats a wrap. Its amazing, puts my turks n jerps to shame 😂😂😂 keep up the awesome work man. Its awesome to have more and more people making scale things for our hobby. We've come a long way from semi frames and tlt axles with shitty looking lexan boxes on top!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Freqeskinz does some pretty cool stuff. I'm still a big fan of hard bodies (obviously) but every once and awhile you need a Lexan truck for competition! This hobby just keeps getting better and better! Thanks for watching!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks very much! Couldn't have done it without the great parts from Knight Customs!

[@scalebuildersguild]

I run a 3100kv Tekin Element Proof Roc412. You'll want more torque than speed. That said, most trail-trucks don't really need Brushless. Take a look at the 35T FX-R combo. Cheap and reliable!

[@user-nq8nu5bl7d]

How did you get the drop bed?

[@scalebuildersguild]

[@dogcrick]

Knight Customs has been very supportive and helpful. James is a fantastic guy along with his awesome family! I highly recommend their parts to anyone that is even curious. Great video brother. I felt the same way for a long time about 3d printing but the more I analyzed the situation the more I realized it really is it's own form of artwork that deserves much respect and appreciation. I am currently working on a couple builds utilizing some super scale Knight Customs parts. Quality is better than any other 3d part I have used hands down. I mean have you seen the Pull-Pal...? My GOD it is sexy! 😍 This video is #espapproved lol!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Yep, he makes good stuff. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!

[@tadheath5856]

Do u know if they make these in a work cab? Why do they call these a hilux....because of the accessories? Cause when I worked at a Toyota dealer they are called a Cadillac body style. What I'm looking for a ext-cab less....just basic cab. I want to do one up like my really truck. I have all smitty built roll bars,bumpers and need bars with Lund visor. Sliding back window sunroof and 10" lift....thank you for this video!!!!

Hey, I have the same body, how did you mount your body without body clips? and did you have to modify the body to fit over the transmission?

[@scalebuildersguild]

I have mount points hidden under the sliders. Two tabs on either side. No body mods were required.

[@whatever9283]

Scale Builder's Guild Velcro or magnets? And my body will not fit over the transmission (spur gear part)

[@scalebuildersguild]

Two 2mm screws on either side. I'm running the original design trans for this build.

The one that Shapeways has. Hard to beat a half-million dollar unit. I own a Tevo Tornado that I'm really enjoying, but the quality will never beat laser sintered.

[@nwhuckin7761]

Looks great and really makes the truck, too bad those knight customs parts are sooo expensive!! If time is money you may save money but just the engine bay and motor are over $150. Knight customs just charges too much and prices seem random. GCM and RC nerds are a bit more reasonable.

[@scalebuildersguild]

You get what you pay for. James' parts are very robust and will take some abuse. I don't mind the pricing structure. That said, Shapeways does charge a lot. Now that I've got my own printer, it changes things a bit!

[@jeffv2074]

Are you kidding me 3D printing is the next wave for scale building sure the "Old fashioned way" is great but as a builder this will shorten the time to create parts and accessories quickly and efficiently. I never saw 3D printing as cheating, you still have to put in the time to create the model on your computer and get it perfect without wasting material, its perfect for our hobby. Check out the app SCANN3D

[@scalebuildersguild]

Of course it's a great tool. But I'll always prefer to scratch build - it's a very rewarding process as well.

[@dakotasnow1174]

Anyone who thinks 3d printing isnt work, has never printed anything. Shit can go wrong for no apparent reason and if one is not there to stop the machine one just wasted a bunch of plastic, electricity and time.
