Central Coast 3D printing?

[Disco-tastic]

Hi guys and girls

I recently had my coffee grinder grind a nylon gear instead of coffee beans. In all their wisdom Breville don't sell the part anymore, so im left with a $300 grinder that doeant work because of a $5 part.

Anyway im looking for use of a 3D printer to try and obtain a suitable gear myself. Happy to use a commercial place or someones shed :p

I don't have a 3D model of the gear.

Can anyone recommend a place that would manufacture this sort of part? As per the title need to be near Central Coast NSW. Newcastle or Sydney is fine too.

Cheers

Dan

Aldi has a 3D printer for $400.00.

I've just noticed that my local Bunnings now does 3D printing. Maybe see if you local Bunnings does too.

Thanks crash, more looking for a place to print stuff rather than a printer. I need a pretty high resolution for a gear too so not sure if the Aldi printer would be good enough.

Sam D - i checked online and could only find that bunnings sells a dremel 3d printer. You sure they were actually printing stuff? If so ill duck down to my bunnings and aee if they do too :)

Check out www.makexyz.com . It is a bureau service of enthusiasts who have 3d printers who are looking for projects to play with. A search may even find a user local to you.

Hmm... maybe I did misinterpret what I saw when I walked past it. Apologies if I sent you on a wild goose chase!

Thanks cjc, i have another similar site so i will try both.

Haha no worries Sam. I was really hoping they did as that would be a fantastic service. All the printing places ive found are either too busy for a small job or charge over $100 for a 50x50x50mm sized print :eek:

I had some roof rack legs 3D printed. From memory they were around $27 each. I happened to score a makexyz member only about 10 minutes drive away! I did construct the 3D model though. All he had to do was import the model into his printer driver software and print it.
