HP Restoration

[anetzer]

Hello everybody,

This thread has turned interesting in so many different ways...

I guess it to be rather pointless to ask Geoff for more specific data concerning the actual publishing. May he rest assured that many here do wait very eagerly and are weighing each and any words he is offering on the state of his project with breathless anticipation...

Two questions however:

I did not find any voyager logo on Shapeways. Did the offer vanish?

More generally: i do know that the spires of this august forum tend to be rather sceptical of the practicability of 3D printing and do admit that printing materials and quality might still be imadequate. However: When might we see some of the oft-worn parts like e.g. the lower half of an HP-41 shell being offered as sturdy and unobtrusive 3D facsimiles?

Thank you for opinions,

a.
