Did not come today... :frusty::frusty::rant::rant:

Apparently it takes USPS 2 days to get from New York to DC... For those that are not to familiar with the east coast that is usually a 5-6hr drive. Left NY Tuesday at 8:30pm and did not show up at my sort facility tell 12pm today...
Oh well, it's taking Ford 10 days to deliver a car from Flat Rock to Ottawa (8 hours drive roughly), so I'm not much surprised lol

We're waiting (un)patiently to see the results :)

Haha! I want to see my toggle.... I am really curious about how the quality is and how well (or bad) it was printed!

If its coming first class mail, I would not be surprised if it does not come today either. Everything I have had sent to me first class mail in the past 2 months has arrived 2-4 days later then expected

Here it is!!!!

I am truly blown away by the print quality here.

Outstanding surface finish with little to no "stair stepping"!!!!

The polished metallic plastic is an excellent material for this toggle from what I can tell so far. Very "premium" feel to it with an excellent appearance in my opinion.

One concern so far... The toggle assembly seems a little too loose. I went with the minimum separation of moving parts shapeways allows of .5mm... We shall see how this loose movement changes once it gets put under pressure when installed in the vehicle.

Looks good, I assume you will paint it right? Whatever you use must be durable and not wear or fade over time.

They can be painted when you recieve them if you wish! Keep in mind this is just one finish! I plan to offer them in this finish and also plastic colors ranging from black to yellow and green! Basically the entire color selection for shapeways "strong and flexible" plastic.
