Red Devil Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I think the 7mm bug has bitten pretty hard, this turned up the other day Shown with a 4mm version for comparison, this is the biggest thing I've had done in Prime Grey, I have a bad feeling my wallet is going to take a kicking very soon, a price request for a Great Central Grimsby and Immingham long car has just been submitted..........!

invercloy Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Where was this printed and in what material please? The surface finish looks good, have you done any sanding and priming to get it to that condition? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Devil Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Neil, beat me to it, but yep that's correct, and the finish is as delivered, PG is a resin material so I find that it needs a bit of work, primer and fine wet and dry do most of it, print orientation can be important but I Materialise can and do help if you want something printed a certain way.

invercloy Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Great, sounds more promising than Shapeways to my mind. I'll give it a try with a couple of bits for a narrow gauge steam loco I'd like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
