Fallout T-45d Power Armor - Fixed

thingiverse

I was facing difficulties with slicing the original model using a slicer, so I decided to run it through a program that the original author suggested and was able to correct all issues with ease. Posting this here to help others troubleshoot. Update: I've added the plate models for both NCR and BOS armor versions, each part optimally oriented for printing. The goal was to create parts strong enough to withstand assembly without breaking while allowing for easy removal of support material. You will require supports and possibly a brim or raft. A 5mm brim worked well for me, but it might be excessive. When done, use pliers and an exacto knife to carefully remove the support material. Once removed, the parts should fit together smoothly. If some parts are slightly loose, you can use clear nail polish to tighten the joints. However, I couldn't find a satisfactory orientation for the lower torso/waist piece that made it strong enough for poseability and still easy to clean from supports without breaking. If lying flat, the sockets for the legs become messy/difficult to clean without damaging surrounding material. I've chosen to simply glue the waist in place with super glue.
