  1. Yes, very interesting. Considering that it would probably require new machines and software, the tech folks will be all over it for the potential profit it could mean.
  2. Thanks Bob!
  3. The scary thing is that we are in the infancy of this level of AI, and its open source! It will get better and faster. People will need to think long and hard about their career choices in the future. Imagine 6 years of college to find out that your chosen profession no longer exists!
  4. HL actually started dropping its Tamiya line back when Tamiya decided to join the "exclusive" club and disallow discounts on its products. That would have probably req'd HL to change its internal practices for a single supplier, which it wasn't going to do.
  5. Awesome work!
  6. Thanks Mike.
  7. I just hope you guys aren't just running it down the sink when you're done. I really don't see the issue with IPA myself. To dispose of it I just let it evaporate.
  8. Beautiful!
  9. I've never used it but I looked at a couple of YT vids & they had good comments about the resin. You didn't specify which resin it is. I looked at std, so if you got ABS-like I didn't look into any. As for your settings, there could be an issue with the elasticity of the fep as you say its new. Its supposed to have some "give", but if your other resin worked it shouldn't be that. If you didn't use another resin with the new fep I'd start there.
  10. Just want to post my latest design & print. I was looking at my kits and thinking about future builds and I saw my 78 Nova kit I bought to make the 4 door resin build. Well the guy that makes them stopped casting them so I'm going another route. I'm going to make a restocustom Nova SS. I designed the grille to make the headlights round, added a honeycomb grille, and a narrowed and tucked in bumper. I also added a chin spoiler to match a 1:1 I'd seen online. I'll get to it some day. 😆
  11. I have the 53 Corvette 6.
  12. Thanks guys!
  13. Welcome to the fray Wayne!
  14. The body on this is a 3D print file that was available for free. Its a little thick but not bad. The engine is parts box, the chassis is from the Mooneyes dragster with the rear axle moved back. I designed and printed the headers, barn door injector, scoop,fuel pump, and moon tank, The wheels are printed but the tires are parts box. The cowl is from a Jimmy Flintstone set. Thanks for looking.
  15. Sweet!
  16. Beautiful build!
  17. Awesome project!
