I've a question about selling.

[shokk]

I've 3d printed a dl 44 blaster for myself.
Some people think it's good enough to sell.
Firstly I don't want to sell it, as to be honest it was a labour of love.
Over 30hrs print time and 8hrs painting and assembly.
But if I built another one what realistically could I sell it for?
Plus is it even OK to sell, the files are free on thing verse.
Please if this post is not allowed please delete it.
I'm just looking advice at the minute.
Here's my dl 44.

Seeing all those massive print lines, and not sooooo really accurate details ...... i wouldn´t pay more than 50 USD for this, probably way less, if at all.

You have to compare it to competitors like this: http://www.doopydoos.com/star-wars-props-31-c.asp

If you look on eBay you'll see lots of comparable 3D printed blasters. Here's just a couple I took from the top of the list:

Thx for the reply guys.
Yea I thought as much, I totally get the accuracy as I'd be the same myself.
Not to worry, I've a lot to read up on to create "a better blaster".
And because it's for me, I'll do it.

Again thx for all the help.

It's still a nice blaster though, just not for selling. You can still make some for friends that don't have a 3D printer, and let them have a shot at finishing it, but you would have to calculate the cost of time, electricity, materials plus wear and tear on your printer.

Yes, I agree with TazMan2000, it is a nice looking blaster. I wish I had the skills, oh, and a 3D printer !

Also, the files aren't free. They're provided under a license, added by the designer. Check the license. Also, talk to the designer. We'd love to hear from you.
