Rob R Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Think of it more like the chippings that a sculptor chisels off a block of stone to produce a work of art. There is not much you can do with the little bit of waste you get from FDM printing, but at least the PLA filament I am using for the track bases is plant based so we rest easy there 1 Quote

GSR 800 Posted April 4 Posted April 4 A bit of work done to Maedbh over the last week or so. The Royal Scot has many similarities to the 800s, but the 800s have a much longer front end and bogie, along with smaller bogie wheels. Changing to smaller wheels meant a large air space was left between the wheel and chassis. This became a bit of a knawling bug for me To sort the issue, I fabricated some fau frames from plasticard, painted them black, then applied them to the sides I then karate chopped the bogie and placed a plasticard spacer to increase its length. I think this improves the overall appearance of the front end considerably. 8 2 1 Quote
