🚀 Big news for creators! 🚀
We’re thrilled to announce that Shapeways and Thangs are joining forces to bring you the tools, technology, and support you need to design, share, and bring your creations to life.
With Thangs fostering ideas into designs and Shapeways turning those designs into reality, this partnership spans the entire 3D creation journey—making it easier than ever to share, print, and sell your work.
The acquisition of a majority stake in Thangs is the second step of the plan created by the new management team behind the relaunch of Shapeways.
, Shapeways' CEO explains: "We will be working now to create the ‘Print to Shapeways’ button within Thangs, and developing shops. We will be retaining the spirit of Thangs, which will become Thangs 3D Inc., a subsidiary, while creating a new home for Shapeways community members’ 3D files and businesses.”
Whether you’re a seasoned designer or just starting, a former Shapeways shop owner or buyer, or already a Thangs evangelist, there’s never been a better time to create. Join us and explore what’s possible at thangs.com/memberships.
