Thoughts about CNC/3d printing

Hey all,

I am thinking about going into business doing 3d printing/CNC work. I was wondering if there is any market for custom work of this sort, and how much it would be worth.

How much would such a service be worth to you?

Depends... I can get my stuff printed at a college campus for $10 per cubic inch...if you can undercut that then maybe...

But this is a student rate, not sure what it would be if I did not go there.

Just figure out a legal way of letting me print and ship to you.

Actually, looks like it would be completely legal. How much would you be willing to pay for them, and is anyone else interested?

So are you thinking CNC or 3D printed with abs?

Also would these be 80% lowers ( I know for certain that is legal)

About to order the platform. I am building a delta arm, which can be used to both mill or print with ABS.

For now I will only be offering 80% lowers, once I get setup.
