Feel free to move each part around and/or modify any print settings as you'd like - these settings are simply what I used and come as part of the file.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Segment 1 xxx_-_roci_f.stl was split up into the two visible sides and the main body. I did this because for some reason you can't use a spatial modifier to enable Wipe to Object for only a section of the object (even though you can use Wipe to Infill in the same way /shrug). So be sure that if you move that part that you move all 3 parts together, otherwise you'll lose alignment.</p><p>Esp with the colors, the corner parts of Segment 2 have set positions. So pay attention to that. Basically just make sure the raised edges on the corner parts match the raised edges on the adjacent part. &nbsp;I originally made the mistake of printing two xxx_-_roci_2a.stl's rather than mirroring one.</p><p>I found it easier to put the PDC miniguns together if you cut the loop on the sidepacks for a snap-on fit onto the shaft.</p><p>Have strong tweezers ready because some of the holes don't bridge well due to color borders. You may need to snapoff/pullout some filament post-print.</p><p>I made a few other edits to the files post-print because of things I missed originally - shown in the images. Hopefully they don't come with additional issues.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I used <a href="https://www.amazon.com/AMOLEN-Printer-Filament-1-75mm-Printing/dp/B098DSDK2C">Amolen Shiny R-color Change Purple Blue PLA </a>for the carbon silicate laced armor bits. Printed well and everything about it, esp the glitter, matches up very nicely with the <a href="https://expanse.fandom.com/wiki/Carbon_silicate_lace_plating?file=S06E06carbonsilicatelaceplatingonRoci01h00m49s.jpg">few seconds </a>we see it in the show, imo. A bit pricey (36usd) tho.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Original model by Martin Taichl.</p>
