I'm with you Niko. I dread foiling. I was just getting ready to foil the side trim on my 64 Cutlass when Steve posted this. I have used tape under the foil, now I'll use it over so that I can better see what I am doing. Great tip Steve.

Yes, I can print as many as I want. Only the convertible. -

Mopar A series 318 "Poly" V8
my66s55 replied to Atmobil's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The early A block engines valve covers had 3 bolts. If I remember correctly, Chrysler A engines went to 2 bolt valve covers in 1959 as they saw no need for the center bolt. My 58 engine has 3 bolts and duel Carter wcfb carbs and my 59 engine has 2 bolts and 1 afb carb. -
This one should not be real complected. Turbosquid is the last resort for files. They are the middle man"s middle man. Expensive.

The internet is already loaded with hundreds of 3d cad car files . Some are free This 37 Buick 4 door sedan has been exploded to show how the cars are created in pieces like the real one's. Makes it easy to put together parts for printing. Then of coarse, there are the ones that cost money. My F&F Delehaye is one of those. These are others in my collection. I got in on a Black Friday sale last month and paid $108.09 for these 3. In order- 57 DeSoto Adventurer, 40 LaSalle convertible coupe and 39 Olds 80 Convertible. Regular price-$75 each. 3.

Good info from Raymond. A member of this board messaged me earlier this year and asked me about the Photon and the Wanhoa D7. The advice I gave him was to go to the Facebook pages for the printers and read the posts. Phrozen has 2. The info you get from these Facebook pages is informative about the printers, how to print and problems and how to fix them.

Thousands of dollars, not really. $799 shipped to your door for more than twice the quality. The photon prints at 20um per hour, the Frozen Shuffleat 30. Plus it has a quality z axis, led array and much more. https://ultimate3dprintingstore.com/products/phrozen-shuffle-resin-3d-printer?variant=12216671338599

67 Buick GS 400
my66s55 replied to yellowsportwagon's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I have the original AMT 64 Cutlass and wouldn't waist it on the Buick. I'll have the 64-65 though. $75 for this 64 cad file. I can modify it to get what I want and then 3d print it out. -
Ace, Mike, David, all good points. Now, I'm going to give you my thoughts on what could possibly happen. As far as Joseph goes, as far as I'm aware, he has 2 printers. One Phrozen Shffle that has all the qualities that the Photon lack and a Maoi laser printer. Laser printers are slower than dlp printer. He also is located just west of Pensacola and was right in the center of that last hurricane that came up the gulf. There are people who have upwards of 20 printers going at one time. I posted photos of my Delehaye project in the on the workbench section. If you didn't see it, check it out. Note the detail. I used the newly released Phrozen XL. It has a build plate area of 190 mm x 120 mm. Prozen has just announced and is taking pre-orders on the release of a printer with a 4k, 13.9 '' lcd. What's next? Phrozen printers are solid, well built printers designed to stand up to use. Add to this the fact that a flexible resin has been created and can be added to regular resin in any percent to create flexibility and decrease brittleness. Image a printer or two in a place like a locate hobby shop.

https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=45736.0 Read the 3rd from the bottom post by Chris333. This is the reality of this printer. Absolute bottom of the barrel. There cheap because they use cheap parts. The z axis is poor. The led is of such low intensity that it causes print time to almost double in some cases. The lcd panel is a consumable. It deteriorates over usage time. Life expectancy is less than 800 hours. You might think this is a long time until you see how long it takes to print one of these parts. Guess who gets to replace it, as in remove the old and install the new. It uses a single led for it's light source instead of an array. If you look at the light from a flash light, it's strong in the center and fades out from that point. That means that the 120 mm by 68 mm is dissipated by as mush as half. If you purchase one of these printers, use it as a learning tool and than buy a decent one.

I have been waiting for a new good 3d resin printer to be made and released for sale for almost a year. It finally happened and I purchased mine on pre-release and received it in late September. I just printed this. This is just a preliminary print. I am going to make some improvements. As of now, this project is back on the bench.

Yes, Joseph creates his own cad files, 3d prints and casts them. The resin printers have taken a giant leap over the past 2 years. My current in the works cad files include: 1954-55 scale correct Dodge hemi which I will also create the proper poly heads for an engine to use in the 55 Plymouth that is in the beginning cad file stages. A 1935 LaSalle coupe that will be a compete 100+ pc project that is 60% done. A correct 1935 Delehaye f & f 135 roadster that's also in the cad stage and has the correct back deck, rear fender and fin that Pico missed. A 1938 Buick 4dr sedan that I found on the net and has the complete body the only needs slight mods.

What Do I Do?
my66s55 replied to StevenGuthmiller's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I do. This is a real glue bomb I'll never use. The steering wheel is on the dash. It's white, so it's hard to see. -

x2. The trigger is great for me. -
I'm not paying $12 a set for hard resin wide white walls when I can print out soft resin Coker Firestone's with the Firestone name on the white wall for a mere fraction of that cost. Here's the Coker Firestone I want and yes, I've already done a trial print of a generic tire and the white wall insert.

I've been using Ubuntu Linux since 2010. The few Windows programs I have to use are run on Virtualbox inside Ubuntu. Don't need virus protection software and such.
