I have seen Shapeways products and they are very, very nice. Are you thinking about a personal or MPHS project? We’d need dimensions of course.
Joe Collias had brass versions of these that Shapeways could probably use as a master. I have on lying around that could be used. Jerry Michels

If you bought decals Joe Collias had through the MPHS, then I suspect they are California Locomotive Works decals. The best ever made for Missouri Pacific, but sadly long out of business. Jerry

Old topic, and a little tangential, but figured I might chip in. If 3D printed tenders and modifications for various commercially available Mikes are potential options, why not also 3D print a boiler for the MoPac’s fat-boilered 1400 Mikes to fit on existing commercially available chassis? If we’ll hand-wring over tenders, why not get the whole engine right too?
