So I just got a printed model back from Argen. I don't do much outsourcing with these since most of mine are done through Itero. I wanted to ask DLN members who outsource their models if they have any preferred vendors they work with and why they chose that vendor.
I found the Argen model to be very accurate as far as the fits and contacts. Just as good as the Itero and also a lot cheaper but the surface quality leaves a lot to be desired...but so does Itero's.
The surface seems to have a chalky feel and you can actually remove a little of the surface when you scratch it. I tried to wash it off but it is stuck on there pretty good.
It would be nice to get a model with this much accuracy and also have a nice smooth surface without the chalky stuff. Has anybody found a vendor with a printer that can deliver this?
