    3D printing. Anyone do it or know someone?

    I'm thinking to have a few RS2 MAF screens 3D printed.

    Does anyone know anybody who might be able to have a go at this?

    Hi Chris,
    On your next business trip in Belgium, you should check out "materialise".
    I've heard good things about them, but I have no idea what it cost to have these parts printed.

    Materialise delivers 3D printing solutions for flexible volume manufacturing of industrial applications while continuing to drive mass personalization in healthcare.

      I would be concerned that some of the 3D printed strands would break off and get injested, possibly damaging the hot-wire inside the MAF.

      I would look for some injection moulded square mesh, perhaps something like the fluorescent bulb fixture egg-crate baffles that are around (See second photo)

        Ish at QC has had some parts 3D printed in black for the UR. You could ask him.

          I friend is going to produce something out of stainless steel. Probably will be ready in a couple of weeks.

              Is it possible to print these things? Damaged on all older cars, costs stupid money to buy and will be gone after 10-20 years again for sure?!

                You could print them in a flexible rubber, but it would be easier and faster and cheaper to mold them and cast them in rubber.

                    Print them in SLS

                    If you have a 3D part i Can get a quote for you since I work for a company that does 3D printing.

                        I won't be home before Saturday, so I'm hoping someone can get you the measure before I do
