Thought I'd post a comparison between the kit part and the 3D part...

some interesting F-35 news... https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/iranian-commander-kept-secret-israeli-f-35-stealth-fighters-had-violated-iran-airspace

Then again...look at CV-3 USS Saratoga. It took two nukes going off in close proximity to send her to the bottom. I'm pretty certain we improved our ship building between the keel laying of CV-3 and CVN-78.

I updated the cans since I now have the kit and the first prints. I shortened the feathers by about 1.5 mm and deepened the throat for a deeper burner. These parts will drop in too. If you bought the first iteration, I might sand the last mm or so off of them to shorten them.

that's probably a typo by a foreigner that doesn't think that $539 is an insane amount because their currency is valued differently than ours... most likely is was going to be 53.99

Sorry for the mix up.... I didn't notice that my dimensions were not appropriately called off in the right location. Regardless, they are posted on Shapeways now. http://shpws.me/Rf6s

See comment in quote.

Yes, i could definitely resize them to fit.... I just need some specific info to do so.... I just need the dimensions below.... in mm if possible. just give me : w= x= y= z= And I should be able to resize to fit.

OK...finished them. They are posted online for sale. Should be a drop in fit. It might be a bit before the 3d render shows up on the site... http://shpws.me/ReBd

So generally the part that the exhaust will fit into looks like this:

Thanks...to be specific...I'm looking for the internal diameter of the opening defined at the red arrows on the image below... since the exhaust needs to fit inside of the opening... A pic of the opening would help too...to see if there is anything to stop the 3d part against.

If someone can tell me the diameter of the exhaust opening on the kit, I can just create them in 3D for Shapeways. I plan to get this kit too.

So it's official..we're buying the F-15X super eagles... The real question I have is...How do I model one in 1/72nd scale?

I think that finish really looks outstanding. Good work.

I just loaded a test file...don't bother. Something that costs me $30 on shapeways cost a whopping $737 USD through these guys. they must be insane.

meh...since that change to tapatalk, I rarely visit there anymore... I went and looked due to this post and it does appear down. Looks like a DNS issue

Purchased today off of ebay...alternative was Hannants at nearly $50!

I ordered some from Amazon a few minutes ago... if nothing else, I can use it to polish the plastic on this..
