well i'm still working on it, This is where i ended up however if i were to make it as a keychain, i'll put the intercooler behind the letters so it holds them.

Dimensions can be anything since i can scale them

I just tried to upload with no luck. I gotta find solidworks. My college uses Pro-Engineer and cad and both are not supported by shapeways

Seems like they would at least take STEP files, which Pro/E can export. I do it all the time. STEP is a pretty common export/import format.

Not gonna lie, that would be badass.

With the design above, couldnt you connect the letters to the top of the ic?

Why's it gotta be scaled down? Put a whole damn B6/BP in your living room like a real baller.

maybe but that keychain above is already running 10psi any more and you may bend the stock key chain and might have to invest in a forged one. LOL
