Try look at 3D Hubs website. You are likely to have someone in your local area operating a hub that will print for you for a reasonable price. Save big on time & shipping from international or further away in Aus.

Just remembered, I had a referral code that will give you $10 off your first print (I think you have to purchase $30 worth of print though) if you’re interested in it. Full disclosure, they’ll probably give me some credit or something for referring someone (can’t remember exactly but it’s possible).
