3D Printed USOS Seaview project

Alan,
When you purchase the files (STL is what I use) I download the files in the STL format. From there I download the file to my printer using Simol
This photo shows my Dremel build plate. I am using Simplify 3D as my slicer. This is before the download to the plate has been done.
In this photo the part has been downloaded to the build plate.
This photo shows the part with supports that are required during the print process. This is also where you set up your part sizing, the infill you want to use, and any other settings you might want to use.
This the part that has been prepared for printing. From this point you down load this frame onto a SD card and the SD card goes to the printer for the printing process.
The photos I have listed above is just a short rundown on the process that takes place to print a part from the STL files. There is more to it, but this gives you a somewhat idea as to the process. Hope this has helped explain the printing process!

With all the discussion about the Seaview going on, I decided to bring it back on line.
What you see is what I done with it! Boxed it up as a no go project. Well, what the hell, you only go around ounce so why not put it all together, and maybe even power it up, put it in the pool (If it will fit) and see what it will do! If nothing else (as David M. Suggested) hang it from my ceiling! :-))

The model to dress Adm Nelson's office film set in 'Voyage'. Later Baseheart. I like the darker gray, but the lighter gray was probably because it probably photographed better in the 20 century Fox pond?
We all grew up drooling over that model. Looks like a clear resin casting from a mold. Then painted, with the windows masked off?. Can one get slide rules anymore?

Steven,
As to the color of the Seaview, I will most likely stay with a lighter grey. Slide rule! Now that would be a subject to pursue. I never did get the hang of one of those in my youth.
Three more boats in progress and running out of space in my work shop!
22 boats built, and still building! Just not sure how a 58" Seaview is going to fit in. But, I will find a way!! :-))
