3d drawings to 3d printing

[Welshy40]

Anyone know who is able to do a 3d design from an original piece as im struggling to find a 3d printing company that can do this?

I've reverse engineered a few bits and bobs - I use Pro/e

Also look for someone with a scanner? They'll be able to scan the model and then produce the 3d render of it.

If it's a Shapeways model, it may be worth approaching it's designer - it is possible to add a 'download model' option to your own part. They may be prepared to do it briefly for a few quid.
