After a long design process, I have received from my 3d printer this body propped up by a framework of supports. Now the fun part begins.

The English term is "engine turned". That's why I cast the body in white metal - so it could be engine turned.

I don't have any experience with Hum3D, but I doubt if you can plug them directly into a 3d printer without a lot of modification. A good place to start with learning how to 3d print bodies would be the 3D Warehouse. Their digital models are free, but vary in quality from toy-like to very good. A digital body is a membrane and must be given thickness to be able to print. You do this by building a series of planes on the inside of the body. Download Sketchup and learn it. There are numerous videos and websites about it.

Superb work.

Darnit, Bill, where you been hiding this stuff?

Superb!

Glad to see you're not working by candlelight.
