    Hi Rob,

    The new designs are looking great. I too have a fondness for the LYR fish van and have whitemetal and etched brass kits for them. IIntend to do one of them in LMS white livery.  You will be putting Slaters out of business with these MR designs. Any plans to do longer wheelbase MR opens and coal wagons?  Have you made any more progress with the website plans to sell these .stls? Would you consider just putting them up on cults3d where that feature already exists. Unlike Shapeways you just download the file and print it yourself rather than paying for a print. I have downloaded quite a few military designs from there without any problems. It’s very easy to use. You can put up designs for free or charge for them. Might be worth considering?

     

    Look forward to seeing more designs.

    All the best,

    Stephen

      Hey Stephen hows it going dude?

       

      Thanks for the kind words chap as always, Hope you are doing well? Have you been doing much printing/modelling lately? I just been reading your reply to the thread on 3d printing resources, some good stuff, im still bloody undecided what to do with all these models mounting up, to be honest I just like building stuff, and a crap business man 😆

       

      I do have plans for more MR and L&Y stuff, along with having a crack at some LNWR, NER, CR, NB, NS, and the list goes on, I have so many books now its crazy!

      Hi Rob,

      Apologies for not getting back to you sooner. I have been printing more containers recently. I ran a few of Sacha’s Freundenberg’s latest creations off over the last couple of weeks for some guys on the LNER Info forum, some whom frequent RMWeb too. I have several frustrating print fails too resulting in several large spaghetti like balls of plastic after two hours of wasted printing. I have printed one of Jonny Duffett’s latest creations. His revised LMS weltrol. It came out pretty well. I have not posted pics as he has not uploaded it to his site yet. The latest containers from Sascha were a LNER refrigerated meat container to D25 and we are discussing just how the doors should best be represented on that one. The other was a D18 ventilated meat container. It prints quite nicely but on my machine it keeps curling up slightly at the corners. Must be a temperature difference somewhere inside the enclosure. The raft sticks like glue to the print bed but the print itself curls.

      I have also been sent two designs of LNER single bolster and am waiting to find out from the designer if I can share these.

      On that note I was emailing the guy runs the G1 fie g

      hosting Service about seeing if he could set part of it for sharing prints to other gauges. It would be a free sharing site though.

       

      All the best,

      Stephen

      Hi Rob,

      Lost the internet for ai bit there.

      At this stage Adrian on the G1guild is talking about having links to designers pages on their sites instead, but he actually asked me if Sascha would want to post his 2mm files to the G1 site if he did not have them hosted elsewhere. This might be the closest we get to a dedicated site for railway files. Did you think any more about Cults3d?

       

      What Scottish and North of England wagons have you got in mind next? I know Kevin Kight is working on a body only CR cattle wagon to complement his medium and large LNER cattle vans plus his medium FR one. I have the Coates volumes if you need info for LYR wagon stock. Or are you thinking coaches and NPCSS?

       

      Have you an Excel sheet of what you have drawn already? (You could put prices on it) I have a sheet of what I have available to me already and what I intend to try and draw. However if you are drawing or have plans to draw some of the same stock, I would defer to yours as they are likely to be better and pay you for the files and use my time to draw other stuff. Would you be willing to take payment by Paypal?

       

      Just realised the time and I have an early start. Keep in touch and let me know your thoughts about selling files this way.

       

      All the best,

      Stephen
