3D Printed USOS Seaview project

Casey,

Looks like a perfect size for your desk area! Who makes the kit?

Moebius kits.

At this point I have all the hull sections printed out.



I am going to start the actual glue up form the bow of the boat to the stern. There will be some light seam filling and sanding along the way, and I am going to do that as I put each section together..

As I am building up the hull of the Seaview, I am also starting to print out the accessories.



The photo above shows the beginning of the Command Deck parts. As I have stated at the beginning of this build, my Seaview is at 65% and not 100% size.

As small as these parts are, I have got to say that my little FlashForge printer is doing an exceptionally great job at printing them. As good as or might be even better that a Resin printer could do! And with mush less hassle and mess, and not to mention the chemicals involved.

AS you can see I am making headway on the hull construction. test fitting parts to be sure they fit properly before you glue it up.

It's about 1:30 AM in the morning, and I am working on the Seaview Command Deck.



I have approximately 30 more parts to print out to finish up the command deck parts.

Any monsters you could 3D?

Casey,

The only monster I have created right now is the Seaview! Still at a loss as to where I am going to find room for it when finished. I can always stand it up vertically, I guess?

Come on, you old fart!... you were once a kid. We would hang our models off the ceiling.

David,

Now that might work!



I remember running out of space for my Fire Fly, I wound up using PVC pipe in out master bedroom. Got da say, that didn't go over very well! :-((

I do have one area on the ceiling that might work?! When your working outside the box, I guess you need to look up sometimes.

Thanks David, for the suggestion.

What went wrong... you had to take down the bedroom ceiling mirror? Damnit, man! Get your priorities straight!

David
Ducking for cover

David,

OH god, I better clear this up in a hurry before it really gets out of hand. It's not in the master bedroom (and certainly not the ceiling there) but the adjoining master bedroom closet/bathroom ceiling

Looking awesome, Rob. Even at 65%, she is still a beastly boat...

[rwtdiver]

Ah!... My bad.

Just funning Dave,

Got have a good laugh sometimes for sure.. :-))

I got a wild hair and built a 1:350 Seaview this week. Only problem was getting the lenses on the fins. They were so tiny.
