We are pleased to announce the release of five new “How-to” videos on YouTube to better illustrate the ease-of-use of PrintAhead online system. PrintAhead is unique in that is a cloud-based application that lets the users interactively create and preview a new statue. This is in stark difference to some similar services, where customers are asked to send in picture and have to trust the vendor about the outcome of the results.
The videos are between 3-4 minute long each and categorized around the main applications of the statues, such as Birthday Statue, Graduation Statue, Sports Trophy, Memorial Figurine, Wedding Cake Topper. Once the customer previews and approves the statues, they are manufactured at Shapeways facilities around the world (see earlier blog). Delivery takes between 7-10 days, depending on location.
We hope you have a chance to watch some of these videos and encourage you to offer comments and observations regarding the process, the outcome or anything else that can help us to improve our product.
PrintAhead is an online product from Abalone LLC, a California company since 2006, located near San Francisco. Shapeways is a 3D printing company, headquartered in New York with facilities in several countries around the world.
