This X-mas, I made a special gift to myself - I ordered four items from Jam-Screw, an Australian company that I had only discovered a few weeks earlier. Two rescue hoists (Sikorsky and Westland), the landing gear set and the tail rotor kit - what can I say, the level of detail in the 3D printed parts is _really_ impressing. I did not think that parts as fine as these could be printed at all!
However, not all of the parts made their way half around the globe without damage. A number of the smaller parts came loose on their trip, and two parts actually turned out to be broken when I opened the containers. I think the main problem with the packaging was that the foam material used inside the plastic containers was too hard - a softer foam would probably more appropriate for the fragile parts.
Anyway, even with the little damage, the four sets were well worth their money. Highly recommended!
