P-51D Mustang Propeller Spinner 1:48 Scale

thingiverse

This is a 1:48 scale propeller spinner (nose cone) for North American P-51D Mustang model kits. The model shown in the photo is the Revell 1:48 P-51D Mustang "Big Beautiful Doll". My father built this kit, and he called me one day to say he had lost a piece and asked if I could print a replacement for him. I matched the revolved curve to photos found on the web and printed a replacement part that fit the model perfectly. This spinner is 1:48 scale, but you can easily scale it up or down for other size models. I printed this at .1mm resolution using eSun Black ABS filament: http://amzn.to/28UK8r6. The ABS is a good choice because it glues easily with ordinary model cement. When you click on these links and make a purchase, it can result in commissions from Amazon that help support my work.
