Gilbert Lai Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 started to explore 3d printing half year ago, now changed to a higher end 3d printer, which I'm very happy about it ~ most important is that I don't need to worry about customs / shipping fee / tax anymore: allow me to show off here : 1. SE 14R with real scope: 2. Merr-sonn Power 5 (conversion parts only) 3. DH 17 4. DLT 20A exploring to print out T 21B / DLT 19... etc, too many project ahead of me now. 1 Quote
Dracotrooper Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 Impressive builds, thanks for sharing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 That's quite a collection, Gilbert, and great to see that there is an alternative to having to pay customs and shipping. I finished building my first attempt at a 3D printed DLT-19 recently, and I gotta say it was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun. DANG it was a lot of sanding and filling, though! Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 A very nice collection indeed, just about to start some 3D print builds, I've normally been a from scratch builder but the 3D versions do cut down the work load Quote
davew1775[501st] Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 I’m looking into printing an SE-14 as well. Where did you find the files for yours? Quote

This is the one I used, so far very happy about it https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2274864 I purchased some files from CG Traders too, but some of them need to adjust its size before printing (I adjust my DLT 20 90% to its original file size) Quote

I got a resin DLT19 but too heavy for me, will make a 3d printed version soon. Quote
