A little bit disapointed by so few people involved by what is going on....

So for those who prefer drawings to litterature :

@mayor Mike :

Thanks for making this topic sticky.
Watkins comment is so true :
"those who have and are negotiating this deal have managed to keep the whole thing very low key."

@ watkins :
"There have been a few comments in the Guardian, but otherwise, those who have and are negotiating this deal have managed to keep the whole thing very low key."

This is so right... and so far from "democracy"

@ numerobis :
"I really hope that the people in Europe will wake up and vote against this shit!"

Let's hope people in the US will do the same, they are as much concerned as we are.

Regards,

Patrice

Hi Bob,

Glad to see other people concerned.
Thanks for the links.
Here is what we plan to do in Nîmes on october 11th:

We shall all rise up against those treaties which are only in favour of
transnational companies.

Love it too, one of the finest style ever done.
Would you mind sharing?

Very shortly here are the main dangers of the Trans-Atlantic "Free Trade" Agreement :

FOOD SAFETY: Our safety standards, much stricter than American standards and the "international standards" (levels of pesticides, bacterial contamination, toxic additives, GMOs, hormones, etc.) could be condemned as "illegal trade barriers" standards.
SHALE GAS: European governments no longer would regulate exports of natural gas to the nations TAFTA. Hydraulic fracturing could become a law for companies that might require damages from nations that oppose it.
JOBS : Companies wishing to relocate in states affected by the project TAFTA where wages are lower, would be protected. The Survey and the Labour Code becoming illegal, no more notice of termination. Employment center should be privatized or be sued by temporary companies for unfair competition. The consequences of TAFTA on the unemployment rate in Europe would only be harmful.
HEALTH & RETIREMENT: Drugs could be patented longer, pharma groups could block the distribution of generics. Emergency services could be privatized. Private insurance could sue the CPAM (Primair fund health insurance) for unfair competition. The PAYG could be dismantled, the insurance companies would replace the CRAM ARRCO AGIRC (French national pension funds)...
WATER & ENERGY: These assets would be privatized. Any Opposing municipality could be charged with obstruction of freedom of trade, ditto for energy, whether fossil, nuclear or renewable. Nuclear safety would be reduced. The price of gas and KW would be free.
FREEDOM & PRIVACY: As the public revolt, companies hoping to lock up and monopolize the Internet have failed last year to pass their repressive ACTA; more pernicious texts are in the TAFTA.
PUBLIC SERVICES: The TAFTA would limit the power of states to regulate public services such as personal services, road, rail, etc. and reduce the principles of universal and wide access to these critical needs.
CULTURE & ARTS PRODUCTION: Large producers of audiovisual could ban private or professional low budget productions like youtube, vimeo, dailymotion, collaborative funding would be made ​​illegal. National museums would lose their right of preemption on the national art treasures for the benefit of private collectors.
EDUCATION: Private universities could sue the Ministry of Education for unfair competition. From kindergarten to doctorate, private companies would challenge schools, school canteens and university restaurant, any municipal, regional or national subsidies.

We all know the damages caused by the NAFTA :
https://www.policyalternatives.ca/newsroom/updates/nafta-chapter-11-increasing-threat-public-good

The European commission mandated for the negotiation - supported by France - to transform EU and USA into a single market and subjugate the peoples to the law of private companies, that is to say, the law of profit alone.
An other world is possible than the one multinational companies are preparing for their benefits.
SAY NO TO TAFTA!

Planning a meeting in Nîmes, France, against TAFTA, a quick view of the project SKP+LO+Artlantis+PS

By the way what do you think about Tafta? Against or pro, thanks for letting me know.

Ok, here is my go

I love this one.....

Thanks pomelo3d, nice fonts, will come very handy!

Incredible work as usual!

Well, it's never to late to have fun while working
Welcome and enjoy.

Patrice

Thanks d12dozr for these two efficient website.
Thanks also cotty.
I have probably rang at the wrong and worst door at my first inquiry for a quote
Others are coming in now far more reasonnable and in the range cotty shows.
Thanks a lot for your help guys, I apreciated.

Patrice

Ok!Ok! I agree with both of you that there is a lot more that goes into the cost of a 3D print than just material.... But still, I join a picture including slice cut and dimensions of the object I asked a quote for.
The volume is something like 30000 mm3 which means accoording to Dukejazz material cost estimation of ABS $ 1,2 in material. The quote I get is $ 250...

"That's why you need to print it yourself to save money and get the material direct for cheap - Dukejazz"
“A Third of All Americans Wants a 3D Printer in 2014″

Thanks for the good advice!

Hi Dukejazz,

Thanks a lot for this very complete answer

" Thus the answer for cubic mm of ABS material is
{($0.04/cm^3) / 1000 } = $0.00004/mm^3 (US$dollar/cubic mm)
ABS is roughly $0.00004/mm^3, and PLA is $0.00005/mm^3.- dukejazz.
cheap!"
Sure! but there is not much to do with such a tiny quantity...

Anyway this helped me to realize that some people around in the 3D printing business
are asking far to much for their services.

Thanks again, keep going with the good job on this subject.

Patrice

Hi Dukejazz,
Following your thread with interest.
Could you please answer that basic question :
What is the average price, say $ by cubic mm of material for example, of 3d printed object?
Basic object cubelike and basic material to make it simple.
Thanks,

Patrice

L'arbre blank - the white tree - is a new building planned to be built in Montpellier result of the imagination and work of three associated
architects, Japanese Sou Fujimoto and French team Manal Rachdi Oxo architects + Nicolas Laisné Associés.
Enjoy and let me know what you think.
