It almost the perfect size for the outer sleeve of th 37mm gun. It needs cutting down to the right length but it's only 0.3mm wider then it should be.

Looking great so far, I'm impressed with the quality of parts you get with printing.

On average what is the usual time frame to print excluding design time?

Got some more done-

HL bogie
Image

a bit of chopping
Image

add some bits
Image

voila

It's just tacked together with superglue so I can check it out (and change bits). The wheel on the left is waiting for a rubber tyre and the one on the right has a printed tyre.

Hi Woz have you made the wheels wider so the Mato tracks fit better, I think its 3 mm , I usually fit Mato wheels in the heng long suspension just need to bush them .Helps stop the tracks sliding around when turning.

That is the best job I've seen yet of modifying the bogies to the earlier pattern! Absolutely beautiful work!
