Looking for trashed parts.

Hi guys,

I am a first year mechanical engineering student and I've managed to get a research institute's interest in RepRap. They do a lot of projects that require customized parts and I saw the kind of help RepRap would be for them.

They've officially asked me to do a presentation for them so that they know there're dispensing funds for something that they'll use. So yes, I may get to build a RepRap at their expense. =)

As part of my strategy, I would need some sample parts made from a RepRap. I hope to be able to obtain RepRapped parts made from poly-lactic acid, HDPE and ABS.

Hence, I would like to ask if any one here has trash RepRap parts lying around in dis-use? It could be something you printed wrongly or the printer went hay-wire. I live in Singapore and I will pay for the shipping of the part to Singapore, on top of any other costs you would like from me for the trash part itself.

Thank you very much.

How about these? I have tons of failed parts. Mostly PLA, but there's a few ABS parts in there as well.

Looks like it'll be about $14 to ship em in an envelope pack, but that'll take at least a week. Faster is more expensive.

Let me know what you think - sent you an email too.

Let me know if you want a Singapore RepRap User Group.

Also, I'd suggest paying Wade to print you one of these:
[objects.reprap.org]

(paypal, etc.)
Then you've got a part in your hands that you can use.

Remember, you're all RepRap developers (once you've joined the super-secret developer mailing list), and the wiki, RepRap.org, [reprap.org] is for everyone and everything!

Hi Sebastien,

There's quite a lively geek/builder community down. I believe as long as I can get one started, get awareness out, more will come. =)

I wont' be lone ranger here for long I hope.

*Wade, I replied your email.*

Tian Chang, here's a guy:

Say the word and I'll create Singapore-RUG, and announce it on the front page with a half-dozen other new RUGs in a week or so.

Then you may discover a half-dozen people over there with working Mendels. Or a few dozen people who want to make them.

Thanks to Wades, i now have the trash parts in my hands.

Testament to the strength of RepRap community support.

let us know if u still require trashed parts.. we are in sg
