Any companies you can recommend? Or where you thinking more DIY build/buy the printer yourself?

  Shapeways doesn't seem to be too bad for most things, and have a wide range of materials. But i was mostly talking about the DIY reprap style printers. Makerbot[1] and Ultimaker[2] are great places to start there if you can't or don't want to source all the parts yourself to build a reprap/repstrap. Eventually when the kickstarter prizes are all taken care of brook drum will be selling Printrbot kits which from what he's said will be much more affordable but also a much simpler looking printer. I haven't been able to play with one to see the quality that they'll do but I'm very hopeful for when mine comes in from the kickstarter he did.
