Not yet; I'm still debating whether or not it's even really viable. Even with faster quality settings, it takes almost 3 hours just to print out a single crate (not even counting the lid), and nearly 4 hours to print out a dragon's tooth. I wouldn't be able to produce product fast enough to really lean on this method of production. I can (and probably will) sell some pre-printed items here or there to get a brand going, but I'll need to move onto casting in order to make it truly realistic as a business venture. I don't have the space or personal skill to do that yet, though. If you want a few freebies in the meanwhile, PM me!

mre's do come in a box. a cardboard box. those box's come stacked on a pallet that is shrink wrapped. i have been on deployments where mre's was my only meal for weeks. at the start of each week you got a case of mre's. this was to last you a week and you did with them as you wanted until the next week.

I was lucky enough to receive some samples. Wonderful quality work that I'd love to see available. Thanks Magic Wazard.

This stuff looks good. Are you able to print heads? they are about 13mm in size but of course very detailed.

Heads? I'm not sure, honestly. I don't think the print resolution is quite high enough to pass muster, plus the support material would be a concern. It would definitely be easier/more efficient to cast them, in any event. I guess there's no reason I can't try, though, but I haven't modeled a human body in years, so my art skills may not be up to snuff either.

Sure! I did Google what individual rations look like, but I wouldn't mind a first-hand picture of one straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
