WTT: new-in-box Kessil AP9X + mounting arm + spectral controller for 3D printing services

[burningmime]

Bought 2 AP9X for my new tank and the shimmer is quite strong, so I'm ditching one and replacing with fill lights.

I'm willing to trade it for someone who has a large 3D printer, some artistic talent, and is willing to work with me to build part of an aquascape for a 180. Hopefully no more than 10 hours of work total; most of the stuff can probably be done with scaled-up versions of thingiverse parts (likely scaled up so might need to be printed in multiple pieces and glued). We'd probably chat for 45 minutes on zoom/skype/hangouts/phone, then I'll send some drawings and talk about what I have in mind. I'll ship the 9X, you ship the final aquascape, and no monetary transactions involved!

You get 3 of these 4 things:

Wow I wish I knew how

Bump!

Can also do $700 via PayPal or something, and sell the lights separately.

Send me some info as to what you are looking for 3D printing wise.

What are rough XYZ dimensions of your printed aquascape?
PETG (most common material for saltwater parts) has a specific gravity of 1.27 so would sink if solid, but most 3D printed parts are printed at like 20% fill, so would capture air and float, a lot.

Also, 3D printing is generally SLOW. especially at high 'fill rates' ... like a few hours for say.... a 4x4x4" cube, so printing aquascape for a 180 (say something that fills the bottom two thirds of a 72x24x25 space) would take weeks and be very $$$.

Ah, sorry; this trade is done. Not sure how to close the topic.
