    Make friends with someone that works at Stratasys. They're just down the street from where I work. And, no, I don't want to.

    @SimRacer works there... and loves having his inbox flooded (as well as his outbox, but that's a whole different conversation).

    Some UPS stores around Minneapolis have our uPrint 3d printers. Def. big enough to print a shift knob. I can send you the STL files. I am not sure how much they would charge either.

    What company is it you work for?

    Protolabs is one of our resellers, not sure if they do printing services.
