Why are all these disgusting stories from these poor slums. It shows why they live there, their hearts are evil. Either poverty made their hearts evil or they are poor because their hearts are evil. Their miserable and abject life is a reflection of the miserable and hopeless hearts. Thats why I stay very far from poor people. Guuushhh.

I suspect that all these positive reviews are from shoptomydoor themselves. This service is TERRIBLE. Patronize them at your own risk. If you are good in lottery then you may win a good service. Alternatively prepare to have your business ruined by scamtomydoor. I used them thrice and all three times was a mess. I spent almost 5000a naira on calls to their customer care. The employees have no attachment to the company, they are carefree and uninformed about their basic operations. I hate bad businesses.

Hmmmm....interesting read here. I am an entrepreneur building a technology company. I am quite young (28 yrs) and married. I worked before i resigned to pursue my dream of building this business. And I want to go to the states to understudy the operations of a company I would love to partner with.

Real facts: I do not have much money in my account even though I can sponspor the trip plus 2 weeks stay comfortably. Dont worry about hotels, i will use airbnb and share accommodation.

2. I stammer. I guess the interviewer will think im not truthful.

3. I dont have the money to waste on trial, so i guess i want it to succeed.

4. I come across as a comedian most times so you will think I am not serious. Well, I am serious enough to have 4 employees.

It appears young people like me are up against the entire federal power of the US as regards visa.

I intend aplly by november......by then i would have reduced the money in my account further....i guess thats added good news.


What do you advise ( even though i know you do not advise)? Should I come to US or look for an alternative partner in China, to further empower the chinese economy over the US economy?


No hurt intended, i am very serious while having fun.


God bless USA but only after God has finished blessing Nigeria more.

Thanks for your time.

@Leaostrich, you this shit quite well. I am impressed with your knowledge. That was the first thing I saw, carrying a sniper rifle while clearing a house. That sniper soldier would be dead in few minutes.

This is plain retardo.

How do you use a sniper rifle for CQB?

The truth is anybody with basic organizational and logistics experience will know that INEC is not ready for this election. Its not about any politics. My problem with the presidency is that they should not be the ones calling for the postponement. They should have people OUTSIDE the presidency through whom such calls are to be made. They are showing their hands too much in this game. Every other thing cannot be proven, we cannot prpve Jega is compromised and we also cannot prove Jega is not compromised. But even if indeed Jega is compromised, GEJmust really not be incharge of our secret services for his camp to discover it just a week to election. If I were to be in his camp, INEC next moves would have been influenced and determined long ago without involving the media. Once again, I doubtthe capacity of Jonathan's strategists and henchmen. Some political objectives should be achieved clandestinely!

I dug our this thread because of the distasteful experience I am currently having with shoptomydoor.

I read about the bad experience others have met with them, however I decided to try them with a small business.

I ordered some items from China since October 2014 and their excuse since then has been the logjam at lagos which I understand delayed shipments.

However since the goods were cleared, their services have been terrible. They inflate the charges through their warehouse charges which started counting even when the goods weren't cleared yet.

Only one customer service personnel ( chioma o) appeared to know what she was doing. The rest wee confused, disorganised or both.

I have spent more than 4000 naira on calls to then and to make it worse their calls start charging you before they pick the phone.

My last resort will be to go legal with them.

I agree with the poster that said they are money centric. The charges they advertise is far from what you will actually pay.

Use them if you want a VERY STRESSFUL experience.

How 3 d printing works 101 by Afera3d

How 3D Printing works

It all starts with making a virtual design of the object you want to create. This virtual design is made in a CAD (Computer Aided Design) file using a 3D modeling program (for the creation of a totally new object) ór with the use of a 3D scanner (to copy an existing object). This scanner makes a 3D digital copy of an object and puts it into a 3D modeling program.

To prepare the digital file created in a 3D modeling program for printing, the software slices the final model into hundreds or thousands of horizontal layers. When this prepared file is uploaded in the 3D printer, the printer creates the object layer by layer. The 3D printer reads every slice (or 2D image) and proceeds to create the object blending each layer together with no sign of the layering visible, resulting in one three dimensional object.

I sense you also have a flair for 3d printing.

Since we are pioneering this industry in nigeria please kindly suggest to us how we can step up our game.

We will appreciate your feedback.

Send your suggestions to support@afera3d.com or post your message here.

We look towards working with you.

cgniyi:
This is good news.

We once considered getting a 3d printer at work to create physical samples of our designs to present to clients instead of just using 2d/3d renders
We scrapped the idea for a number of reasons.

Anyways, I'm looking to try it out on personal projects.

Sorry to say though, your site makes you look unprofessional.

Do you have pics of any 3d print you've done , cos everything from your site is obviously off other sites.
At least provide samples, let's know what you are capable of.
Would also like to know the materials you can print with - e.g. ABS , metal

Look at this site for example http://www.shapeways.com/

There are a lot of people interested in this, please step up your game.

@cgniyi...thanks for your feedback. We will definitely improve on the site as we progress.

Our work for some architectural firms cannot be displayed due to non-disclosure agreement we have with our clients. Thats why we want to move into the mass market so we can have something like shapeways.

We print in PLA, ABS and metal.

We are professionals and dedicated to best global practices in the 3d industry.

We look towards doing business with you.

looool...seems you are the don here. Why was i asked to meet you? I need to pay protection levies to you?

3D printing or additive manufacturing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file.

Hello, any problem with the link?

who is spywareczar?

Thanks

Let's start the conversation

what is 3 d printing?

I represent the company www.afera3d.com

If you are good in CAD and can create mind blowing designs using software like blender and you are ambitious and restless, then you could be our freelance designer.

We are the first 3d printing company in Nigeria and we look towards being the best by engaging minds that do not understand the term- impossible.

Come grow with us, come challenge the status quo.

We appreciate people who love what they do but we have a special flair for crazy people, rebels who want to break design norms.

this is the future and we will create it with you- in style.

Our advert starts running on nairaland this week.

We will maintain this thread as official company thread. Feel free to drop your questions, suggestions and feedback. To learn more about 3d printing, google '3 d printing' or go over to youtube to watch the magic of 3 d printing.

@austinmart, please ask who to pay through paypal?

Hello house,

I have been reading all the threads that have to do with importation but I have not found an answer to a challenge hence my decision to write it out.

My alibaba supplier sent an email to me
that if i want to pay through escrow they will have to ship directly to me and not through m,y shipping agent in china

If I want to ship through the agent I either pay directly or get the shipping agent to pay them.

Now, I'm wondering why?

any such experience here?

The soldiers should die...my condolences to their families.

They should die because they shot and missed their target.

What manner of rubbish is that? You know the gravity of shooting at ur commander and you did that and missed.

They should have made sure they got him but since they have proved to be incompetent soldiers who can't hit their target they should not be shown mercy.

It should be a lesson to other soldiers....sharpen your shooting skills or do not shoot at all.

If they killed the useless commander then other commanders will learn.

They failed in their mission cos of basic target practice. They should not receive mercy.

Can i get the contact of a reliable person in NYSC who can help influence posting for batch C. Thanks.

We may think this is funny or people are just playing. But this is what will play out in 2015. GEJ will win and ppl will cry blue murder. All the media noise doesnt change the opinion of the man who is on the street who knows one name GOODLUCK. I aint joking, on the street, in the market, in school people just LIKE the man. And to be honest, his enemies have ended up making him the most known politician in nigeria today and if any of you online guys know anything about elections, the most popular wins whether he is the best or not. Thank you.

I am not necessarily a GEJ fan but one reason he should run and win is is so that NEVER AGAIN WILL A SITTING PRESIDENT BE CAJOLED AND INTIMIDATED BY PEOPLE.

instant follow back. talking sense

hmmmmmm.....wait till they come and see this, u never see attack, go get e-bulletproof

Been reading the posts and i must commend the zeal. But i am still watching. The nigerian youth network name is too legalistic. There are thousands of networks out there. It will just turn into another NGO. Lets get a name that shows we mean business. I suggest simply THE YOUTH PARTY. No big deal, straight and direct. Then i suggest we get off our computers into the real world as fast as possible, if not this idea will die.
