flugzeugwerke
« on: April 09, 2015, 04:17:50 PM »
How cool is this!

Got an engine stand from flugzeugwerke.  Designed by Bo Monroe, 3-D printed at Shapeways and landed on my desk in Australia today!  Print-to-order parts for our WW1 aeroplanes.

This one's in 1/16 scale, perfect for my Aero Daimler Motor by Weiner Modelbau.







stunning, stunning, stunning

Very cool, Steven!  Bo's really taking off with this 3-D printing stuff, something totally foreign yet fascinating to me.
Cheers,
Bud

Maya -- George has me trying to switch to Rhino, which is theoretically much better suited to solids modeling for printing… but it's like painting in a cave to me (apologies to Connor Oberst ;)

And what's wrong with cave painting? It was good enough for our ancestors, and the art is still around for us to enjoy! ;D

Just ordered two 1/32 motor stands.  The Mercedes Crank and cylinders look great.  Will give these a go when they are out of beta.  Have you thought of doing a stand for rotaries?
