Yeah thanks for the advice I will definitely look into schools in the area and see what I can come up with!

That is what I thought as well, so whenever I sent the dash out for quote with Shapeways and 3D Systems it ended up being either slightly higher or no change for 4 pieces vs 1 piece. I may have simply gone in the wrong format than they preffered too.
I will be posting a few more picks from my UI Designer tonight. Can't wait to hear what you all think of the layout so far!
