1/16 Optics

Post by **WCP RC MODELS** » Mon Aug 14, 2023 12:06 pm

So the first one to start this off, some German Zeiss binoculars and a small carry case which i have designed
They are 1/16, and very very tiny, but maybe that something you were looking for which no one else has

I am sorry I missed this post earlier. I am hoping that after my SdKFz 251 is here I might get one of these and the ambulance. Meanwhile, I need to rob a bank.

Well if you need a getaway driver professor I'm your man for a slice of the gains

I can confirm how tiny but perfectly formed these items are as I was lucky enough to get a set from WCP already

Cheers,Lee.

Hopefully some small pocket money items like these will find themselves appearing at Blackpool lol.

Hold on Catherine, can that fellow of yours print clear resin/other? For example, headlights?

Clear headlight lenses in various sizes--talk about useful!

yup can be done no bother
only thing we need is sizes and design, we can get them drawn up and printed
but the clear resin is a bit more expensive, so we would rather do a batch of them
in fact, i think we prefer to run a printer specifically for this use so we just run clear to stop contamination

Would it be feasible to do a run of a sprue (or the like) of various-sized lenses. Maybe RCTW folks could measure up needed shapes and diameters so you could pick the most requested to print and sell. (Certainly I could use various lenses, and they could be shipped tucked in with my SdKFz 251 and bumperettes.)

yes could do
So maybe we need to setup a post to get peoples interest in lenses, people can put sizes and get a picture and design as we can add the detail aswell
then we can print whatever
personally i like to run a build plate full of 1 size of whatever it is, so i do multiple batches of everything
then we just snap off the parts in put them in groups etc
sizes is going to be difficult, but if anyone has those and a picture my job is made a whole lot easier
