While I agree you don't need to be a computer expert It's not quite as simple as you are making it out to be anybody who has half of mind can figure out how to do it and do it pretty good I think that if you're fine with the run the mill files that are out there then you don't need to learn to design you can make a lot of stuff and there are tons of things out there you start talking about ultra detailed models things that are above what you normally find on Cults3D then you get into wanting to learn the design or at least modifying other people's designs. It's a pretty fun hobby but at the same time you can get us some really frustrating things what you paid for your Mars 2 back then can be done a lot cheaper now for say a Mars 3 plus washing cure You're probably looking at 300 to 350. Now if you want to start printing bodies at 1:24/25 scale I recommend at least getting something like a Saturn 2

Outlaw Trophy Resins
Texas_3D_Customs replied to chester's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I agree most if not all of his products are available on 3D file sites, but his prices are really generous from what I have seen. I wouldn't even touch those large items for the price he asks, but 12+ weeks lead time is abysmal and I feel bad at a maximum of 5 workdays. The biggest issue is when you show the pictures from the file site instead of your printed product, always a red flag to me. Quality may be great and for the price if you can wait 12+ weeks it may be a good product. But you are outside if PP protection at 12 weeks... -

So I am just going to state the facts, 1:24 vs 1:25 for a whole engine with a transmission is usually a difference of 2mm in length total and a width of 0.7-1mm depending on the style like OHV vs Push Rod. I find it very hard to believe that 2mm the width of a pencil lead over the whole length of a powertrain is what is making it look out of proportion. -

Winch bumpers aren't done The stinger exhaust is in the upgrade section if you click on the plus button it'll bring up 572 and Volkswagen Porsche I think and then the singer exhaust is in there, you can also use the search bar and just type in stinger it'll pull up -

Timken F-30 rear axle ?
Texas_3D_Customs replied to Dale361's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
So to let you guys know I have ordered some 3.5mm brass tuning this will be optional to buy but I am making the model fit that tube and need it first for testing. Any 3.5mm OD tube will work but when I get it I will print test and release when proper. -
My photo booth is not big enough for something like this but this is where it stands right now for me got a few things to work on either I'll fix it Scott will fix it I actually do know how to model I just don't have time and I'm not as good as Scott I won't argue that but most everything came out pretty well I'm going to probably change the way I orient the body to get rid of the fuel lines that I see on mine but other than that the seats came out good most everything looks great The problem's going to be I need to figure a way to make this cost effective for you and for me

I could tell you what model I have I don't think they make it anymore but they have a newer version of it that probably took away some features and maybe added something else like I think mine can print directly on DVDs which kind of is a dead thing now so there's that but I use cheap ink off Amazon I think I pay like 20 bucks for six or eight cartridges something like that works great Will print up to like 19x13 or something like that huge portraits that look fantastic -

I have a Canon mid level printer ~$300 that never has issues with ink tanks (no print head to exchange) and produces fantastic results. -

Oh a cricut is much simpler than that, drop any image format in use the included software, my daughter who is not all that tech savvy figured it out hit print move to cricut and it cuts right on the edge of the print. It's actually pretty good, but then you're working with insanely small waterslides though -
