Modelcarjedi Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 First try at printing a body on my Ender 3 v2 printer. It’s kinda rough in a few spots but that’s ok. I’m not sure where this project is going but it’s going 😂😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beeRS Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Wow. I am clueless about 3D printing, but it looks like a lot of modelling skill is still involved in a project like this. This is looking great👍🏼. What is the material that is being used? Is it the same as working with polystyrene? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the same as working with polystyrene? The wheels and tires are printed in resin. The body is printed in PLA it’s a harder material than polystyrene. It’s easy the print with and the bodies are sturdy. Great for when you drop them 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelcarjedi Posted October 22, 2022 Author Share Posted October 22, 2022 I haven’t done much on my Merc lately. I printed a nice flathead to use for mocking it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geemoney Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 love the whole thing... that flathead is WILD, is it 1/16 as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Metallic Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 That chop is sick! Just curious why you didn't chop it digitally before printing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
