I'll try to keep this album updated with various things. It might inspire someone to think outside the box and more or less every one of us, has these items at home.

Out the box, in the box, over the box, under the box. I'll turn it inside out if that helps!

Just added a few pictures of a roll cage I made, for a funny car. Soldered spectacle arms, come in handy.

Thought it might come in handy mate. Walk in the park really. Just assemble off the model. That metal gets hot! I use a piece of paper, over a piece of construction foam. (Kingspan?) They use it for insulation. If you drive by a construction site, you'll see lots of it in the dumpster. Repurpose it. It also comes in handy for dioramas and model railroading 😉

I'm all for repurposing anything and everything my friend.

Looks like your resin printer will be well worth it.

what printer are you using Bozzer

I picked it up locally, off marketplace. The kid wanted a bigger one. It's an Anycubic mono 4K. Setting up was easy, and it's an excellent entry level printer. I'm sure that you'll agree, the prints so far are good enough? Word of warning to you guys though:
Adhere to the warnings about the resin. Treat it with respect and definitely wear a mask. The actual printing isn't smelly, it's the handling of the print, that stinks. A good wash and cure machine, is definitely on the cards! But I'm more than happy with the results.

thanks Bozzer, i have been close to buy one a couple of times, but since my 3D design skills are 0, I thought it was going to end up as a expensive paper weight.... and refrained from doing it. when I learn 3ad design, that will be a different story (not any time soon, unfortunately)

Spanjaard, not so fast, buddy!
You are aware that you can buy files to print, and some of them are free too? You don't have to be Albert Einstein, to use these things? But if you want custom work, then be prepared to have a go yourself 😉

that is exactly the issue, if I were to have one, Itwould be mostly to do my own stuff 😉

You would be surprised at what's out there mate. Have a look on Thingiverse, and see if anything tickles your fancy? There's lots of other sites available, you just have to make yourself aware of them? I find the following link, a fountain of information.

I do think a resin printer is the way to go. The detail on those is amazing. My son has a filament printer and the detail is limited and the print lines are everywhere

Bozzer
Martin, I have both. My filament printer is great for a master copy of something, or even a handy tool? But for what we modellers build, I'll swear by resin.

thanks for the info Bozzer!

No worries mate. That's why we're here 🙂

Martin, I added some pictures for you, regarding clear parts

Thanks mate 👍🏻

No worries mate. It should give you a little inspiration. If I can do it, I'm sure that you will. Try to support the back, as you gently sand? As I mentioned, I used the Alclad sanding kit, to achieve those results. Start at a low grit, and work your way higher.

I did the same on my F-100: F-100D Super Sabre WIP | Album by Mahoo76 (1:72)

That's very impressive mate 😉

It was very scary to do, I must admit.

Sanding clear parts, just doesn't seem right? But as you can see, it works? That's the worst windscreen, I've ever seen! The recovery was dramatically different.

I've used Novus fine scratch remover and plastic clean & shine ..with good results. the scratch remover is really just rubbing compound ... time to dig out the little buffing wheel that comes with your Dremel tool kit

Thanks for the tip, Mona. Unfortunately the windscreen/windshield, on this one, was covered in glue and hair? How that happened, I'll never know? Personally, I use clear drying wood glue, on all my clear parts, but this guy obviously didn't? I love the challenge, of a previously started kit, however this one, took more effort, than it should've.
