Hi, my Duo's door broke and I'd like to get a repro.  I sent you a PM; lemme know if these are still available.

Just ordered one for my Duo and another for my Duo-R. Such an awesome offering, thanks jelloslug! :D

If I may inquire... given the ubiquity of 3D printers these days, especially in public libraries and maker spaces, why is the price so high for these particular reproductions?

Just a guess, but I assume it's because the print resolution is better and/or better finished (no print lines), more accurate for a good fit, and has been dyed for a color match.

That may indeed be a good guess. It would be awesome to know for sure.

The doors are excellent. Considering how old these consoles are, I don't know how jelloslug was able to match the colors to perfectly, but they're exact.




I forgot to grab a picture of they grey door installed while I was back home, but it's exact too.

This is incredible! Any plans of doing PC-FX front plate covers? Seems like you'd have some takers, as they aren't available anywhere!

About pricing, a wild guess of mine, aside from what Necro has yet mentioned, I'd also factor in raw material, size of the print and printing time.

Browsing Shapeways for 3D printed products gives a good feeling for pricing.

They tried to make me do a recap
I said no, no, no
