Yes. And thank you so, so much for pointing that out.

I can't take any credit for the incredible details -- from the Torpedo Director to the radar antenna -- all that super-fine detail work, at such a small size, is the work of the infernal 3D printer robots. I'm merely the idiot assembler of those perfectly rendered items.






Proof positive that the era of my kind is at an end. No significant number of under-studies; shop is no longer taught in our public school; and the general populace has lost any sense of purpose or reward from anything that required a deferment of results and application of discipline.

The 3D stuff is done better, cheaper, and quicker than me. Time to surrender the field to the robots.

Printing parts is the future, wether we like it or not, remember that V60 i've completed, non the less the craft to builld such things will not be lost, it still takes some effort to make this happen.
As long as i can make the parts by hand, that will be my way of working, i personally accept the printing chapter, but i refuse to yield to printing alone.

I thin k printing makes certain aspects easier but on the other hand that also raises the bar quite a bit, as there is now no excuse to not include proper detailing. And printing is not of any worth if you're not able to design. Otherwise you can only replicate things others did before you.

We're the last of the breed, Manfred. After us, the Craft is all but lost to the world. When the electricity is lost to us, who will make the wheels?
