A
friend of a friend had an opportunity to print this catapult from Printable Scenery for me. He’s got
a ‘slightly’ better printer than me, but it cost around half a million SEK (or
£/€ 50 000) so it should be :)
Even
though it comes as a single-piece print I had to repair it, and reposition the
lever, as my pal had mistakenly parked a heavy suitcase on it. The single-piece
was in three pieces when I got it, and that proved to be one piece short of what was needed. To make matters worse, the missing piece was small and made of
a clear translucent plastic... It was eventually found in the bottom of a
backpack.
Anyway,
here’s the finished catapult. Amazing detail and no sign of it being a printed
piece.

Let the record show that someone else parked their suitcase on top of my backpack. I dod not do it myself.
ReplyDeleteSo you parked your backpack underneath someone’s suitcase ;)
DeleteClassic rookie mistake.
DeleteReally nice!
ReplyDeleteit sure is! Amazing detail, but a bit oversized metal-parts. But sure looks good.
DeleteGreat catapult!
ReplyDeleteYep!
DeleteIt is certainly a smashing looking miniature, there is no clue that is was printed, I'm impressed :-)
ReplyDeleteSo was I. It's an amazing print.
DeleteMust have a better printer...
