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.

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!

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.

More to come.

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.

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.

Well, another completed project. The painting will be done by the customer. It was a different build for me but still very fun.

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 caught up with him and got my sirens. It was an e-mail glitch.

Hello everyone, 

I'm still here and available to 3d model and print parts of any kind for you. Whether you're into cars,  boats, planes... or maybe you need a miniature lathe, mailing machine, drill press or work bench for you custom display setup. If you can think it,  chances are I can model it and print it.

Here are a few exemples of different things that can be printed.

Structural componants such as roof trusses,  columns and beams...

Don't hesitate to contact me, I'll be happy to help you get that spécial part you just can't find.

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)
