3D Printing
3D printing can be an end in itself as well as a tool for rapid prototyping industrial design concepts and models. Some of the designs shown here are available on my shop at Shapeways as well.

A Daruma Doll based on the Japanese traditional wishing idol - Available at Shapeways

Go to linkAnother form prototyping that I have used extensively is foam prototyping. These are examples of architectural foam columns.
Although not technically 3D printing, these pieces were machined with a 0.003" tool on the FROGMill to demonstrate the fine capability of the machine, despite its large frame. The pieces were created using ArtCAM.
This complex piece was modeled in SolidWorks as a prototype for a holiday decoration for a client.
This personal project was relief modeled using ArtCAM and produced on a color 3D printer.
This piece was 3D printed as a scale model of the production piece
