Easy print & glue - Marder II Sd.Kfz.132

thingiverse

When I started printing vehicles, frustration often mounted due to subpar print quality and tedious cleaning work. To overcome these issues, I decided to break down the object into several components. My focus shifted from print quality to minimizing support structures. After printing each part, they had to be carefully glued together. Meanwhile, I successfully printed and assembled several models using this method. As a result, I'm now publishing the print files for all users seeking quick and high-quality print results. I extend my gratitude to the original designers of these models, who are essential contributors to our community. By simply dividing their designs into multiple parts, I've made it easier for others to achieve excellent print outcomes without modifying the originals. This time around, I tackled the Panzerjäger Marder II Sd.Kfz.132 project. I dissected this complex object into manageable pieces and got to work. Notably, I strengthened the upper hull by thinning its walls. To showcase my progress, I printed the model at a 1/72 scale using my FDM printer. However, for the benefit of others, I've scaled the attached STL files to 1/100. One notable exception was printing the gun with support structures intact.
