Cromwell Mk.VI (1/6) 42rocker build thread

[42rocker]

It starts! I bought the program and printed some of the print and assembly manuals.

I just bought a small 3d printer about 10 days ago.

Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo

It seems like a nice 3d printer. Not big enough for the Hetzer but big enough to do the smaller pieces of the Cromwell.

Right now, it's busy printing Chess pieces. Last night my Wife took control, and we printed a Rose.

But I did print part number 01-10A in the wrong material, used pla. It warped on the bed, bad. Pictures later.

Also printed the MG-34 machine gun halfs and ammo can. Interesting, not perfect but very close.

Going to order some ABS and PETG later this week. I'll see how I feel about another 3d printer at that time also.
Thinking about the 3d - Anycubic Kobra 2 Max which can print those materials and is big enough to print the Hetzer!

Well, may your 3d prints stay stuck to the plate till they are done.

Well, I did it, I did it. I bought another 3d printer to make these tanks.
What you ask?

Ordered an Anycubic Kobra 2 Max with lots of Pla, ASA, and PetG.

Now, the hard part,,,, waiting for everything to get here....

I'm learning 3d printing on a Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo. Which is working out quite well for me as beginner at this.

I keep on reading the Tank printing manuals and when I'm not printing chess pieces I try to work some tank part in here or there. My Great Wife said last night that I needed to take a break and print her a Flower that she saw. It came out quite well I might add.
