Could be interesting!

That's veeery interesting. Could be cool for making campaign counters or replacement bits.

Very cool. I see someone sending in a template for a Thunderhawk.

That is awesome.

They can cut Styrene plastic sheets up to 31" x 15"... That's like cutting 5 or 6 sheets of plasticard in one fell swoop.

Personally, if I were doing this, I'd make several Warhound-class Titans - things I can play...

anyone send stuff in for a quote yet?

Ork glyphs in various sizes would be amazing.

I played with the photomaker and a drop pod template I had on my comp. It didn't work to well, even after much fiddling. There's potential for cool stuff, it will just take getting used to the tool or using their other methods.

I had a 7" by 7" styrene sheet (the only size available on the photomaker tool) with a few parts from the drop pod template that I finally got to register on the tool (a few of the details on one door). Cost was about $8 (1.5 for the material, rest was work -- shipping not included).
Hopefully the cost doesn't go up significantly with more cuts, cause there was not much on the sheet by that point. Gives you some idea though of the cost.
