I must be mad. Bought another Ender3. This one is a Pro version however and I think I got good price in auction. £170 with postage.

Now also looking getting a larger 4th aswell haha

Pictures of a 76mm WW1 Cannon printed and put together. Now got a Limber to sort for the field kitchen and all accessories
Another model exhibition we are doing for a local military vehicle show.

I need take some time with scalpel to clean up the rough bits








Some wheel hub nuts to slip over the hardware and we laughing.

Again got bearings in the wheels, but no suspension on these things. But the rear shovel scoop does rotate and this can also be connected up to my own design tow hitch, so we can tow it about on soft terrain only of course

That has turned out great Will

Cheers, Lee.

They are quite cheap at the moment - not sure if thats going to be a perminant thing, or if there is another model on the way and the sellers are dumping the old stock?

Are you able to produce a nice smooth surface, been putting off buying one . Don't want to have to sand down for a flat surface .

It is possible to get something that requires minimal sanding, if you run at a very slow travel rate and a small layer height. Using a filler primer prior to sanding also helps. The down side to getting smooth surfaces is that the print time is measured in days rather than hours.

The layering evident on the print can often be designed out by choosing a different angle to print, for example placing the layered surface on the non-visible underside or inside of the item being printed. Half the problem of designing and printing models is constructing it in such a way as to minimise the printing artifacts whilst maintaining the required strength of the printed item. It is a challenge and requires much additional thought and planning in the design and production.
