This was a redesign and rebuild of a 3d model that I transcribed into CAD from an old Hudson Miniatures model plan from 1949.  For comparison, the last picture is the original built several years ago, and the rest of the pics are of the significantly improved version I just completed.

From Hudson Miniatures to 3D printed! The mind boggles! Next they're going to tell me that the world is round and spinning.

That's a great idea and excellent work. It sure beats carving one out of wood.

That is awesome. What scale is that? Was the original the same scale? The detailing also really brings it to life.

Dave,  the original drawing was 1/16, but both printed models are 1/12 scale.

I just had a cruise through your build thread. I am very impressed with your project. A fine example of proper model building, and the finished product looks great. Nicely done.
