Building the french suffren sna

[Albacore 569]

Designing and slicing a new added part. A Drive shaft frame brace for Suffren for printing.

Next morning, 14.5 hours later Volia!

These frames will be placed aft interlocking the existing hull wall shapes aft of the OTW dive module. The hole for shaft is 11.5 mm, a 1/2 mm added for ease of fit sliding brass tubing of the Raboesch drive shafts sections with bearings.

It's amazing to think up a custom part, design it in the morning, slice it using Lychee slicer program, printing that day and overnight, and hold those parts in your hand in the following morning. No striations lines discernable visually compared to non -resin printers.

I hope my modeling will include the best of the old combined with the best of the new. The Any Cubic 3m Max has been working excellent now after a long early frustrating beginning learning about the world of 3d printing.

Shaft braces being trial fitted Fit good.


Rubber grommets added. A little sound isolation? Hell why not. The dive module will be on rubber mounts too. If I am going to, now is a good time to add such and they are in the shop spare parts box, so why not. Do Koi Fish do Crazy Ivans? LOL. The aluminum tube in bottom photo is not the actual drive shaft, it's just a alignment reference guide.
