SR71 Blackbird Sample Tester Print of Engine.

cults3d

This engine section is a test print for the 1/35th scale SR71 Blackbird scale model with stand. I'm uploading it because it's one of the trickier parts to print, and it's a great way to confirm your settings are perfect. If this print turns out okay, you can be confident that the other parts will too. The complete kit, which can also be converted into an LED lamp, will be available for sale very soon. The dimensions of this part are approximately H190mm x W155mm x D125mm, but to complete the other larger parts in the kit, your printer needs a build volume of at least 200mm x 200mm x 200mm. I've created STL files that are optimized for single-wall printing with specially developed 'inside-out' internal supports. These generate stiff and economical parts that require no infill, supports or finishing steps - just print and assemble beautiful scale models. Single-wall printing is very quick, and the total cost of filament for the entire build is less than $20. This approach to designing complex 3D printed parts is still quite uncommon, but I believe it has huge potential and will continue to improve on it. The SR71 kit is based on a 3D model by Chris Shakal, an aeronautics engineer, who used it with my kind permission - he even printed one of these SR71 kits himself. Check out the video here to see this sample tester part being printed as a single wall in 'vase mode'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxebBUXJS7o Happy testing!
