Sculpteo and Shapeways 3D Printing Race
The two orders are placed within 10 minutes of each other. But Sculpteo's main office in France and Shapeways' main office in New York could effect the process. Sculpteo will likely 3D print and ship via its San Francisco office, which is closer to our Los Angeles location. Shapeways usually ships from New York. Our experience shows that both vendors has delays before. And with the Thanksgiving and Christmas shopping season upon us, shipping may be slowed. Let's see how they pan out. We ordered the following products from Sculpteo:
We ordered the following products from Shapeways:
Sculpteo estimated ship date of 12/1 with an estimated arrival of 12/4. Shapeways estimated ship date of 12/2 with an estimated arrival of 12/3 to 12/5. So the estimations between the two vendors are very close. They are basically one day off from each other. We'll see how can pull through. Seth Here is an after Thanksgiving update. Shapeways finished printing all three parts on November 30th. It generated a shipping label. But November 30th is a Sunday, so shipping won't actually occur until 12/1. Sculpteo printed the Helio M727-G Underbarrel Shotgun on 11/28 and shipped it. But 10 hours later, it issued a return request to UPS. Kinda strange. Seth The final report is in... Sculpteo shipped two packages via UPS Next Day Air Saver on 2014/12/04 from San Francisco, CA. The packages arrived on 2014/12/05. Shapeways shipped one package from Long Island, NY on 2014/12/02. The package arrived on 2014/12/06 Seth
