I found a model of the Prediutor bbut made a mistake and printed it in 1/32 instead of 1/35. I have also printed out the engine, seats, map boxes and throttle leavers for the PT-17 which will be arriving in the next week. Also some wheels for the DeHaveland Tiger Moth. Love the DeHaviland trade mark on the hubs but can also do without. Then a seat and backrest for the P-40. Pictures arent great and the stuff needs a wash but otherwise you get the idea. I have some more figures and monsters to print sometime also. In the FDM side I didnt take pictures but I have a game of Simon says for the grand kids as well as travel spirographs and I made a small trash can for the car which fits in the travel mug indents. Making a trash bag dispensor right now and I printed some holders for the center drills for my lathe as well as some peg board for the lathe. Oh and I got the mid and high whicker seats and printed some of those off also.

The printing is getting better and more crisp James. I noticed the tire on the side closest to your fingers has a crack in it running vertical. There was a guy at Wonderfest that did a seminar on printing errors and this was one that he showed. I don't remember what he said you had to do to stop these.

Went and checked and it was a cat hair. Unfortunately those files are pre supported so no option but how to print them. I prefer when the author gives you the choice. The one thing I'm not happy with is the ridges on the PT-17 seats. Not sure what that is.

The ridges look to me like they are layer steps in the printing accentuated due to the angle it is printed at.
 
I really need to look into a small one for making some RPG minis...my high school group has grown to over 30 and I have two student GMs now splitting duties...
