Rick's 1-87 Scale 3D Printed Fiat 666 Cargo Truck

[adt70hk]

Thanks Gents for the kind words and support. Don't let my difficulties put you off Andy. I wouldn't be doing this except for the rarity of this particular vehicle in 1-87 scale. Your Long Tom may be a different can of worms or it may be a breeze. One thing is certain.....you have to work on these with a "light" touch and mind where you grab it cause of the small bits.

Noted!

I don't know this firm or anything about them, but it's worth remembering that this 3D printing lark is mostly done by amateurs and one-man-bands like ourselves, so we should have lower expectations than for an injection-moulded kit. And not being mass-produced in its hundreds of thousands it's no way going to compare favourably price-wise either.
The only reason this truck is there is because someone has a passion for it and has shared it with those VERY few -no offense- who are also interested. It will have required the same amount of research and (CAD)draughtsmanship to create the digital original as any Tamiya kit, it's just the manufacturing engineering that's different.
Lecture over, sorry!

Way to hang in there Rick. Shaping up nicely.
