Feedpump Drive Turbine Rotor

thingiverse

Inspired by dj245's Low Pressure Steam Turbine Rotor, this is a meticulously detailed 1:18 scale model of a feedwater pump drive turbine rotor. Print two of each rotor section and then carefully glue them together. For display purposes, print one of each stand. When printing in ABS, the edges of the blade area tend to lift - if you encounter this issue, use the pads versions, which feature small cut-away pads added to prevent lifting. There are two 1.75 mm holes at the bottom of each part for precise alignment between halves using small pieces of filament. You may need to drill them out slightly - a #50 drill bit works effectively.
