I like the idea of plant based plastic .... It must give you the munches when your printing and it smells like cooking. AlohaStation .... As far as the time goes, I had to experiment a lot before I got things right. But, I can sculpt a piece and get it ready to send in a couple of hours or so. The cost for this pendant was actually a little higher than I first reported. I did not include the shipping as stated, so it actually came to about $17. Trying slightly smaller sizes can knock that cost down a bit. The longest time was waiting for it to come in the mail. I think Shapeways' gets pretty busy sometimes and it took nearly a week before they printed it. They send you an E-mail when it goes into production. It was just about exactly 10 days from me sending it to them until I got it in the mail.
