The Shapeways site is completely interactive in that one can design one's own item within the limitations of their templates and then have it made 'without getting one's hands dirty'....and one assumes the respondent would feel truly creative!
'Create cups and tumblers from scratch without getting your hands covered in clay. Design your one of a kind set using our easy Creator tool and get it made in food-safe 3D printed ceramic. Painting pottery is so 1999. 3D printing pottery...welcome to the future.'
It is certainly a new other kind of world!
Any thoughts on this?
