3D-printed 1/32 carbonits 20kg

[Dave in Dubai]

Here are a set of assembled 3d-printed carbonits in 1/32 scale for interest.

Included are 2 completed items as well as 4 without the tailfin tubes attached ,so  the small brass propeller and mounting baffle can be seen more clearly.

Compare with a similar full scale item in Le Mussee de L'air at Le Bourget.



My grateful thanks to Bo Monroe for realising the 3-d parts and to Ray Rimell for providing the archive dimensions.

Thanks Dave for spearheading this project. These 20Kg bombs are in beta pending me finding time to write up instructions:

4 up http://shpws.me/Hk1p
6 up http://shpws.me/HkMo

The kits come with 4 or 6 bomb bodies, along with tools for forming the cylindrical fin out of sheet metal and another for forming the strap from wire or strips of sheetmetal.
