[djdavies83]

Yep, that's shapeways, Ive not used them myself but friends have bought timy stage coaches for their N gauge train sets, the detail is amazing, for more smouth and accurate that the fillament type, they used the powered building system.

Speaking about tin foil hats....

I've been using this interweb for a long time now and targeted ads are not
something that bother me much - I can not be bothered to clear all of my
cookies so I am well used to content being delivered to me based on my
habits on Amazon or eBay

BUT - today I was delivered this advert on Facebook

https://www.dropbox.com/s/0zgaoh8ki5t26zv/Screenshot%202014-09-18%2014.19.20.png?dl=0

you will recognise it as the design I downloaded from Thingiverse and
printed at the hackerspace - the latch for the flap that covers the hazard
triangle in the boot of my audi

not an advert from Thingiverse but an advert from a shop who will print it
for me and post it to me (I guess)

This is taking targeted advertising to a whole new level! I'm not sure to
be in awe or to be horrified!

I am not aware that I linked Facebook to Makerbot - I tend not to do things
like that - I will have to go back and check!

Off now to make a hat out of tin foil and to put a steel mesh over my
windows - the glass ones - I use a Mac ;-)
