STLs for Chieftain, Centurion, Churchill, Matilda,Crusader

Post by AlwynTurner »

I have decided to make the stl files for these tanks available so everyone can have the fun of printing and building them. The files can be emailed at a price of £50 per tank set, but I only have assembly instructions for the Matilda. The other tanks can be assembled by followiing my build threads:
Chieftain
viewtopic.php?f=202&t=25154

Centurion
viewtopic.php?f=202&t=25518

Churchill
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=32961

Matilda
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=28362

If you are interested then pm me, I will be away but I will have access to the internet to email the files. Payment needs to be by Paypal family and friends gift.

I'll be back........... as Arnold Schartzeneger frequently said

I'm counting down until April's payday, I'll be getting the Matilda and Churchill files. I looked through the build thread for the Churchill but didn't notice it mentioned anywhere, what material did you print it out of? The only filament I've used so far is PLA. I think the wheels and some other bits may be better printer on the resin printer.

I used pla plus for everything on the Churchill including the tracks. I bought KAIGE filament from ebay, the quality is great, printed at head temp 190 and print speed 50mm per second.

Some will say PLA is fine, but I'm not some. I have an SU-152 printed in PLA and it has warped in the sun so I won't print anything in PLA that will be in the sun. My IS-7 is PLA, but it is really thick with built in supports. I'll have to see how well it does once it's fully built. PETG has been used by some here. That is what Bob used on the T-35 tank. Personally I'm using ASA for my outdoor tanks, but it prints better with an enclosed printer. Not sure I would go that route without an enclosed printer, but some have done it.

The Churchill is very tempting once I get a printer. Are you selling just the stl or the CAD too? Thinking AVRE.....
