will you be doing a run of these?
One side is assembled. I still need to add a few small details but I'm happy how it's coming out

Hey gang, I finally made some more progress on this build. I have both sides ready to sand , fill and paint.

What size cube do you have here? I'd like to work on one and have something like this to display it in.
It's a lot of work actually. So not likely. If someone wants to purchase the use of my 3D files, they are welcome to do so, otherwise... based on how much work this one was... I wouldn't charge less than $1k for a finished one. So... I don't think a run is likely to happen.This looks fantastic!!!
So possibility about a run??

3d printed props aren't any less difficult to make than ones that are cast or made from scratch with other materials. Rather than spending hours in a shop fabricating pieces, I spent just as long designing each and every component digitally before producing a single piece. People think that 3d printed items should be cheaper because the materials used are cheaper (not always), but what it boils down to is this, you're paying for my time to work digitally rather than traditionally. Also... consider this... the only other person who has made one of these was David K. From Germany, making he and I the only resources for obtaining this prop without you making your own from scratch or having one commissioned... and I know his price is about the same as mine. So, supply, demand, scarcity, time (my time has value too) and profit.Thank You but wow it's a bit too steep path for a 3D printed prop... I'll think about the 3D files offer though, as soon as I'll have a good, reasonably high res 3D printer available!
