Amazon has just opened a\u00a0<\/span>new\u00a0<\/span>3D Printing Store<\/a>, which allows customers to\u00a0<\/span>customize and then purchase “more than 200 unique print-on-demand products.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Customer can take their pick from a wide variety of products to tweak: from cufflinks to credit card holders, iPhone cases to… err, custom bobbleheads.\u00a0<\/span>The amount of customization available on each product varies, but it includes attributes like<\/span>material, size, style and color variations, as well as personalized text and image imprints.<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazon itself isn’t involved in the manufacturing process, instead farming out the production to\u00a0<\/span>3D-printing businesses like Sculpteo, Mixee Labs, and 3DLT. They’ll fulfil the orders while Amazon acts as a hub for customization and purchase.<\/span>The\u00a0<\/span>store<\/a>\u00a0uses a new interface which allows customers to see what their customizations will look like on a\u00a0<\/span>3D preview which can be rotated, flipped and zoomed.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are some cheap products on offer\u2014an\u00a0impossible gear keychain<\/a>, for instance\u2014while prices head north for some of the larger, more extoci products, like\u00a0lampshades<\/a>.\u00a0You can go explore the store right now<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
