• 3D Printing

    From Thumper@954:895/36 to All on Tuesday, April 12, 2022 08:24:00
    Anybody out here into 3D Printing? I've been doing it for several years after seeing how much I was spending on Model Kits. Thought to myself why not print my own! I've found several great sites for patterns, some free and some cost, but have had great results and fun projects. Thinking about a 3D sanner of some sort in the future. I'm also a Guild Merchant for Lion Tower Miniatures and do resin printing of 35mm D&D type figures. Most have gone to my Grandkids who play the games at this point, but always fun.


    ... I think my learning curve has turned into a circle.

    I found a great resource for 3D printing that you might enjoy: https://3dinsider.com/

    You mentioned that you have found other great sites. I am always looking for good
    resources to add to my Recreation and Hobby Directory at: https://www.recsites.com

    Can you let me know the web addresses of the ones you have found. I can add them to
    my Directory.

    What 'models' are you printing? When I hear models, I think Model Car Kits.
    :-)

    My wife has a couple of 3d printers in her classroom. I've printed some
    board game and miniature game stuff - terrain for Gaslands, mostly.

    A friend has a resin printer and has printed some cool X-Wing mini game thingies... :-)
