Solo Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Dave, I always wanted to ask you: do you sell 3D printed products (I mean bombs especially) or resin ones? There are 3D printed items on your pictures (I can see the layers on the surfaces), but maybe fina products are resin? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are 3D printed items on your pictures (I can see the layers on the surfaces), but maybe fina products are resin? Everything is 3D printed and yes, the downside are the print layers. However, the number of pros outweigh that one con as far as I'm concerned. While it is difficult to see, the built up GBU in the last photo was sanded (not all of it) with a 1500 grit soft sanding stick. A task that took about 2 minutes. While I could thoroughly clean a few parts and cast them in resin, the modeler would then have to remove all of the casting blocks, sand the mating surfaces flat and line everything up. On my end, casting them in resin would require constantly making molds, pouring resin, demolding parts, etc. Using casting equipment is also loud and takes up a lot of space. With 3D printing all of the parts, the only downside is the layers on them. They are provided to the modeler ready to paint, assemble and attach to your model. I can fit all three of my printers on a small desk and hold a conversation while they're running. I can also do other things like draw decal art, design new masks, pack product, fill orders and even work on models while the printers are running. Couldn't do all of that while trying to operate casting equipment and it's a lot less messy. Please remember I am a one man show and literally do everything myself. For what I want to release and how I would like to present it to the modeler, 3D printing each part works. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wish I have your products in Poland, then I could buy them and check the quality. Hope you will be selling them in Europe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't take it as a criticism, just wanted to explain why I chose to stick with the 3D printing. Well, Hannants carries the line but I don't control when they get new products.

BN7149 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) These look really nice. You say they will be available in 1/48th as well, any idea how those will be priced? Also, any chance of a MXU-735 nose plug being designed for the kit? Thanks! -Ryan Edited August 18, 2020 by BN7149 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
