Re: The 3D Printer Thread
looks cool. You can print resin with it too? (or only resin?)

Re: The 3D Printer Thread
So, still busy to get acquainted with my printer, but so far so good.
I found a very detailed nebelwerfer in 1/56 which I upscaled to 1/16.
I used supports, which I probably shouldnt have done
Now a lot of cleaning up to do.
maybe I will print it once more, but t takes 16 hours, so for now it is ok.

Re: The 3D Printer Thread
Some little bits been working on, had a request for HengLong King Tiger replacement mantlet

Why not break down the model and not print the barrels, but replace with metal tubing?jee wrote:So, still busy to get acquainted with my printer, but so far so good.

As for supports, you just need to play around and get used to where and when
Re: The 3D Printer Thread
Thanks, yes using metal tubes for barrels is an option, although printing the barrels is actually not the problem. It is the lines running outside of the barrels that give the most problems, they are thin, so replacing these with some brasstube would be a good option I think.WCP RC MODELS wrote:Why not break down the model and not print the barrels, but replace with metal tubing?jee wrote:So, still busy to get acquainted with my printer, but so far so good.

And for the rest I am learning and trying as much as I can with my printer. Received some new parts yesterday so I hope to be able to install them soon.

Re: The 3D Printer Thread
I find that using thick copper wire stripped from mains cables works quite well for thin wires/tubes as it is easier to bend and shape.
