Wow, think of the time you'd spend cutting tube like this. I like it!

A coat of Future helps tame those awful layers a little. I had some luck dipping 3D 1/700 aircraft in Future.
I had the idea I wanted to build a 1/35 Willy's Pick-up. I ordered this from a vendor in Wichita, KS. It scales out about 1/33, so not too bad. I can't fault the vendor. He illustrates what an absolute turd it is. (Could it really be THAT bad?) I figure the 1/35 Dodge WC-56 4X4 running gear would almost fit. Nothing to do here but C/A glue fill/sand/rinse/cuss/repeat OR cover it with stowage and jerry cans.
A project for a day when there is nothing left to do.

I don't think I understand what happened there but wow.

This is the original Order of the Golden Fying Fluck award from 2022. In a little less than a year, uncured UV resin (because sunshine doesn't reach the inside of a solid object,) gas expanded. The Fluck ruptured, uncured resin ran pout onto desktop, hands and clothes. The ruptured Fluck continued to fracture as exposure to ultraviolet light (Sunshine) cured the rest of the interior of the no-longer-solid Fying Fluck.
Similarly 3D printed, solid Christmas Missile Toads were gifts for our kid's families. Phone calls were made to insure these were properly protectively packaged to insure a similar unscheduled out-gassing/fracturing event didn't lay waste to other family Christmas heirlooms.
Now you know The Rest of the Story.
The Rhino.
Good Day!

I guess that means that you will need to drill holes in their butts so they can poop.

And shine a bright UV light pen up there. "Blowing sunshine up their a$$"?I guess that means that you will need to drill holes in their butts so they can poop.
This is why the TLAR Fying Fluck is a solid cast article. The endothermic reaction of the Smooth On liquid polyurethane plastic cures completely in 4 hours.
