François Posted July 29, 2023 Posted July 29, 2023 (edited) Hello all, Having much more time these days, I've decided to start a small business venture. I'm offering you my 30 plus years experience in design. You would like to add some custom details to your model? Or maybe you need a specific assembly or fabrication jig? I can model them for you and generate a .stl file so you can have it printed. Can't print it yourself ? I can print it for you. Whatever your need, we can discuss it and see if I can help you. Prices will be based on complexity, precision of print and quantity. Here is an exemple of what can be 3d modeled. And printed Here is my info (Sorry but the web site is not up running yet). Hoping to do some modeling with you!! François Edited July 29, 2023 by François 3
Pierre Rivard Posted July 29, 2023 Posted July 29, 2023 Bonjour Francois, This fellow PQ resident is following your awesome Bentley work with great interest. I plan to do a 1/24 version so some upgraded parts from your shop would be welcome. For sure wheels to start with. salut!

François Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 I'm currently working on my first 3Design Models projet (3DM for short). It's a dump truck body. I've completed the 3d modeling and will start the actual fab very soon. There is not much 3d printing in this projet, it will be mostly scratch built from styrene and aluminium. It will have a working tail gate and if all goes to plan, a working air driven lift cylinder. It gives an idea of what I can do. 3D model More to come. 2
OldNYJim Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 Nice scratchbuilding! That's really beautiful work!
François Posted September 1, 2023 Author Posted September 1, 2023 Almost done with this project, tail gate is done with locking pins, telescopic lift cylinder top anchor post done, front and rear mud flaps done, tarp arm done. All that is left to do is the telescopic cylinder. Here are some pictures. should be getting back to the Bentley soon. 1
François Posted September 2, 2023 Author Posted September 2, 2023 Did the telescopic cylinder today, and it actually works using my airbrush compressor. Also simulated the welds on the dump body using tamiya putty and a custom printed super thin nozzle. The brass tubing will be replaced by an aluminium part. 2
François Posted September 3, 2023 Author Posted September 3, 2023 Well, another completed project. The painting will be done by the customer. It was a different build for me but still very fun. So now, it's back to the Bentley !! 1
François Posted September 26, 2023 Author Posted September 26, 2023 Here are a few progress links to different projets I did.

absmiami Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 Ive been following your posts for months now - really cool stuff - as im sure you know - most of the kits that you have produced large scale parts for have also been produced in 24th scale - examples are the Monogram Bugatti and the Heller / Revell (?) Bentley Blower - some of your parts could be useful in the smaller scale - example - the Bentley eng water pump … have you tried yet to print these parts in the smaller scale ?

I even printed some wicker chairs Don't hesitate to contact me, I'll be happy to help you get that spécial part you just can't find. 2
François Posted April 5, 2024 Author Posted April 5, 2024 Here is another example of things I can design and print. As you can see, it's not just for modeling. A button cell box (casing)
MeatMan Posted April 6, 2024 Posted April 6, 2024 I've got to remember you when I get requests on my Cults3D site. I don't do custom but I do get requests.
François Posted June 17, 2024 Author Posted June 17, 2024 I finaly got around to making my web site. I'm no web designer so it's simple but I think all necessary info is présent. www.3designmodels.com
