my66s55 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I'M posting this a guide for those looking for 3d files. Understand the difference between 3d files and 3d printable files. 3d files lack depth needed to be printable. A depth of 1.7 mm is needed to make the part printable. Without a knowledge of how to make these files printable, your dead in the water. With that in mind, I will give a web site that I have found that will give you a source of what's available at a minimum of cost. Check it out. There's something for everyone. Sports cares, seventies, eighties, even ninnies and more. Pickup truck. Semi's and more. Station wagon's and more. 's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruleworld Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) they appear to be rips from Hum3D, so probably not legal files. Edited September 5, 2021 by kruleworld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The license states that resale of the file is prohibited. What you purchase is a download site to get them. There is $0 for the actual file.

First line of the license: The CUSTOMER may NOT: redistribute PRODUCT or modifications/parts of the PRODUCT; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my66s55 Posted September 6, 2021 Author Share Posted September 6, 2021 (edited) Hum3d makes $95, not the artist. Read the last paragraph of the licence. Violation of any of these conditions will be prosecuted. You don't know if any kind of deal was made between these persons and Hum3d. You just assume they are "pirated." You have enough to worry about what's going on in your country. Maybe you should be more concerned with that than jumping to unsubstantiated conclusions. Guilty until proven innocent doesn't work here. Edited September 6, 2021 by my66s55 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my66s55 Posted September 6, 2021 Author Share Posted September 6, 2021 So let's take a serious look at this new freedom license Hum3d uses. So. I purchase a 55 Dodge 4d from them. The file is 90% wrong. I make corrections and convert it to a 55 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer convertible. It's seriously screwed up. 85-90% is wrong. So I take my time' etc to fix it to be right, as mush as I can ascertain. Hum 3d, under their current licence, my improvement belongs to them. If I make any file of there's 3d printable, It belongs to them. Sorry Hum 3d, ain't happening. If I can get it free, I'm way ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SfanGoch Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Don't sweat it, Doug. It's just hypocritical double standards and virtue signaling being put into play. The same people have no problem with casters who make resin copies of bodies and other parts using kits produced by assorted kit manufacturers and sell these items at ridiculous markups. Their justification is that the casters are providing a "commendable and necessary service" to the modeling community by making items that are hard to find or no longer available.

89AKurt Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I would like to know if this source, and specifically the "file" is worth pursuing. I asked one local guy, his printer is too small for starters. Can it be done in 1/24?
