Ed, how did you get the brick texture on that Sintra? Scribe it?

There is another print house called Ponoko that uses the Projet 3000 HD, the successor to the Invision HR.

@Ray .. a combination of scribing and embossing I guess .. scribing with the tool held at an acute ange so it embosses. There's a modeler in Europe .. Emmanuel Nouaillier does stuff similar to Marcel Ackle who uses it under the name Fortex® for modeling. Managed to translate Fortex® to Sintra® but still haven't confirmed what he calls Feather Board. There is a thread here on this forum that says it is Komacel®, Foamlux® or Simopor®. Looks like some great modeling material .. need to get some .. whatever trade mark it is sold under.
