Very well done!

Really nice!

Cool!

I've been collecting & printing parts, and did a little preliminary work on mine. I'm doing a tribute to the Fury Road Convoy Leader (aka Elvis) Deuce. It won't be a replica but I'll come as close as I can. I've wanted to do this for a long time and when Texas 3D Customs came out with the engine I figured it was time. Its third in the queue now but I'll be doing little bits along the way.

Killer!!!

Cool!

Thanks Carl!

Thanks Anton!

And there's a story behind each and every one that's lost to time. Some probably interesting, and some mundane.

Beautiful build David!!

Been a minute so apologies. I got the engine done finally. Just wired it yesterday. The coil will be fender or firewall mounted, thus the loose wire. I designed an accessory drive setup in order to have power steering and AC and printed it as a unit. I used cloth electric tape for a belt. I also designed and printed the air cleaner. I also did the exhaust manifolds so that the engine would fit within the frame rails. The headers just made it too wide. As for the chassis; its almost done but needs suspension parts, e.g. sway bars, steering setup, etc. I changed the wheels to a simpler design because I realized that the ones I'd chosen had a single center lug. I'll use Molotow to chrome the outer rim and center section when the build is near done. The plan is to spray the base white today. The last pic shows my inspiration.

Yeah, its pretty normal though there may be some remedies I don't know about. I try to position my model to have the supports at the least likely area to matter if it has marks while keeping islands to a minimum.

Threw me off for a second there. I'm like what?!! Then I read the text that you blew up for folks like me. ?

What slicer are you using? Its simple to do in Lychee, which has a slider for that. Realize tho that as you reduce the tip diameter you reduce the contact area which can cause the print to fail. I only reduce the tip size on smaller areas of the print, not to reduce scarring.

Yes, there is a second step to converting a scan to a printable file. From a previous search I did what I found was a. you need to clean the file up by eliminating any background and reflections. b. you need to import it to some kind of CAD program to convert it. I don't know the intricate details because I stopped reading at that point. I suggest doing a search on it. There's a ton of info out there and I don't know what you're using so I can't help any further.

Well done! Awesome detail!

Sweet!

Nice build! Awesome weathering.

Beautiful color combo!

Well done! Great overcoming the flaws in the kit.

Beautifully done John!

Beautiful build Ian! Browns fan myself but I got folks in Cincy so I root for them when I'm not rooting for the Brownies ?.

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Thanks Mozzi!

Too bad I built my 918 already. I really wanted that rear hatch kit. ?
