My first 3d print order from makexyz
Can makexyz tell me who my 3d maker is please and make sure that the quality is high standards and will not break, warp, snap. This part is very important but my order just says makexyz no confirmed size, colour, filament. Thanks

garyg - HI
I always make sure I know who I'm communicating with before placing an order.
So far on MakeXYZ, I've used only one guy with a Makerbot Replicator 2 printer.
This worked out well for me.
Dan is reliable, quick and knowledgable.
and lives only less than a block from where I do.
It pays to communicate with the maker before actually having your
part printed.
..
Just my two cents worth.

elpulpo - Hey there @vrbabe14. Are you sure you've actually placed your order? If you just uploaded your STL file from the first page, I'm not sure how you'll communicate with your printer but given the pricing that MakeXYZ calculates for that kind of order and the fact that such orders are always apparently urgent, I wouldn't expect the quality to be especially high. My advice is always to click the "Find printers" tab and actually decide on a particular printer to work with. Ideally someone who's local to you. And make sure your selected printer knows just what your requirements are. The cost may turn out to be a tad higher but the chances of getting what you need are far better. If you let me know your location I can sort someone out for you.

Cheers,

vrbabe14 - Hi @garyg thanks for your reply and advice next time I'll contact Dan see if he can help me with my part lol

Best wishes

Hi @elpulpo thanks for your reply and advice, this is my first time here so I uploaded my stl file on the homepage and selected the material, size, etc then paid via paypal. I received a confirmation email from makexyz " Order placed on makexyz!
You will be notified when your order starts printing.

Description of project:
VR_Cable_Door_Holder_fixed.STL - quantity 1 - Black
-----
Total price: $19.90 "

Then day later received this email " Your order is headed to the printer! If you have any questions, contact makexyz here:
Contact makexyz
Thanks for using makexyz! You're awesome. " so I have placed my order and I thought that makexyz were going to 3d print my part for me. I actually did ask for 4 quotes before and only one replied which said at this time couldn't 3d print for me. So I sent the remaining people an email saying please ignore my messages, I have placed an order with makexyz. Think its too late now to cancel my order but hope its good quality. My location is Mansfield UK.

Best wishes

elpulpo - Yeah, Jayme. Looks like the order's been offered to several printers and one has accepted it. This order method is something of a bone of contention here as it's pretty impersonal and who knows how the prices are calculated. If you click on "Contact MakeXYZ" you should get through to Nathan. He should be able to sort out the order. BTW, I'm in the UK too, so if you'd prefer a more personal service, let me know.

Cheers,

AndyL

vrbabe14 - @elpulpo - Thanks Andy yeah I've emailed Nathan to see who my printer is and lets hope it turns out okay lol. If I'm not satisfied with the outcome Would you like to take on the challenge? I'm on a budget due to my illness I don't get much. I need good quality and strong material at good rates. I can send you my STL file if you like.

Best wishes
