Hi,
I was wondering if you know of anywhere I could source a spare foot for a Galvanitas chair I just picked up? Or maybe one of you kind folk has a spare one that you would be willing to sell me?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm thinking 3-D printing is ...
I'm thinking 3-D printing is going to be the way to produce all of these missing and broken pieces in the very near future.

Yup
I have to agree, and my husband has mentioned this several times before...
The only "issue" is to use a a strong enough 3D printing media, which is available, but is far more expensive than some types that are just used to model prototypes for example, but it can be done just depends on the cost...
He is looking for an excuse to buy a commercial unit as the have come down in cost quite a lot and can be purchased for approximately £1000 these days...so much potential for designing objects / replacing missing or broken parts...
Thanks for your input!
