Really cool. 🚗

Prices are in Canadian for T's

Pretty darn interesting. Was wondering how 3d printing works. Thanks for sharing

Yeahhh, definitely 'getting closer' James! Nice work and well done.. both for the polishing and also cleaning the 3D prints to a beautiful smooth finish. Looking forward for the next update.

Looking brilliant James, loving it 👌 👍 ❤🇦🇺🦘🪃🍻

James, I enjoyed the chassis build and body polishing. As usual, your work is to incredible standards! That chassis has insane detail!!! Its mind blowing when you put the body and interior on the chassis near the end of the video, such a great looking model from 3D! Its gonna look incredible with the engine and wheels on when done!!!!

Is there any way to print the bodies thinner to better represent the thickness of the real body panels?

Crazy awesome work! You got me building one! Where did you get the pins (both sizes)??

That is looking sweet, James! And it reminds me that I need to wet sand my Porsche build.

Man that chassis is awesome. Love that all the parts are pinned in. Great coverage of your sanding and polishing. Appreciate the insight into your process.

Nice progress! I still get giddy knowing you created it from a bottle of goo.

Wow she looks awesome

Looks great 👍

Really looking great, There sure is a lot of detail on the front end, nice. Think I'll add this kit to my list.

Where did you get the rotary tool sponges? Also, how many coats of clear prior to final sanding? Thanks.

Great work James, that chassis looks killer. Do you like the Tamiya polishing blocks? I've considered getting some, but so far my glasses cleaning cloth methods seems okay. But I don't know what I don't know, so maybe the Tamiya product is better.

You do such excellent work. Your builds and tutorials never get old if I make it to the nnl next year I will be wearing a t shirt

This is a Awesome build. Love it, and loving your videos. 😊😊😊

That is coming along really good great build. 👍🏻

This is a great build Ken block was an amazing driver and I would like to recreate this for my collection also sir great build

Thanks for this great video! Lots of details are really useful

Excellent tutorial! Just what I've been looking for. The color and finish look amazing! Question: Where did you get that scale for the paint/thinner?

I'd like to see a normal looking VW 69 bug. 1/32 scale. Thanks.

Really enjoying these 3D resin printing videos James ❤🍻🦘🇦🇺🪃🌨🏔

I was hoping Bill would end up on the podcast. I have been admiring his work for quite some time. Between admiring Bill's work and learning how to print from James, I have been inspired to order a printer and try it out.

Wow... That 3D printing software looks complex! X)

Try and use the plastic from a two liter soda pop bottle

Great video on 3d printing. I'm really enjoying this series.

Just started my first 1/64 scale model restore today. Not the best but it’s a start. Love the shine

Excellent video, great bunch of guys!

Really enjoying seeing the Ken Block Mustang coming alive stage by stage. Music fits as well !

Hi James, great video. Can you tell me your air pressures for the different coats that you use? Thanks

Another great video James, thanks for sharing. Even though I still don't own a 3D printer, it was great following the process required to place the files, add supports and finally print. Gets me learning what is required when I eventually finally get one 😊

will try it! Thank you

Dang it Thnks for your reply about the printer now I have to get one. Keep the printing vids coming.

Thanks for the video and product link. I will definitely try it.

I need one!

I am learning what you can tell us.

Hi James, Great result, it looks really clean. I have a few questions, I see that you have Lychee on your toolbar, what do you think about it? I tried it and I actually liked it better than Chitubox (island detection, for example), I know that many people don't. Can you tell me Why? I didn't check all of your videos but do you explain how to chose support shape, conical head pointy or ball at the end, how deep into the print, ...? When I was doing 3d printing at work, I was really guessing support shape and size without knowing what I was doing, it worked most of the time but I was wondering if there is rules. How much clearance would you recommend to fit parts together? Like for example the distributor, if the wire is 1mm diameter what would be the hole diameter in the distributor to fit the wire comfortably? I'm thinking about getting a printer but I know that in my case it will collect dust most of the time and the resin will expire, I think that for now it makes more sense for me to have Stratasis, Shapeways or Fathom deal with it, it's not that expensive anymore. Although it would be fun to have one (I'm thinking about the small $100 Geeetech alkaid). The funny part is that none of the printer services is cheaper than the other, but sometimes price varies, so it's good to upload in 3 of them every-time to get a good price, sometimes it varies by a lot. I also used FDM printing, I was always puzzled that it couldn't get the printing duration right, most of the time less than anticipated (sometimes by more than an hour on big prints), it got all the info (speed of printing, travel, pause between layers, ...), it's a computer, it should be easy business to calculate all that. Sorry for the long comment, Good continuation, 👋🏻

David R Lentz, Columbus, Ohio, USA (Wednesday, 25 September, 2024) 3D printing and laser etching (if that is the correct term), in model-building’s efforts to adapt new technologies, are topics of keen interest for me (though to my deep regret, I lack the means, or the experience with CAD/CAM, to engage in it directly). If I understand it correctly, one can create objects of nearly unlimited shape and astounding exactitude. Modellers so equipped can create kits of scale models, or short of that, sub-assemblies, in any proportion; if Dan has a military vehicle, figurine, etc., in one scale, but he wishes it were in another, one need only to scan into a PC of sufficient capacity the precise dimensions (my guess would be down to the micron) on all three axes, which one then transfers, transmits, or downloads to a 3D printer or laser burner (if that latter is the correct word) of sufficient resolution for 3D printing or 3D burning (if I name correctly that second option). At 6:07 to 6:18 of your video, you endeavour to characterise the anomalous texturing of the object’s surface, saying that since “the resin is a little harder than the plastic”, so one must “start with the higher grit-or the lower grit; excuse me.” To avoid the ambiguity in the usage you employed, I suggest one express more precisely descriptive adjectives; here, “coarse” or “fine”. Building upon this, rather than us employing just two polar opposite constructs, for us perhaps to create a scale of 1 to 9, or so, that we can improve our depiction of the unwanted texturing. Also, would higher resolution of CAD/CAM three-dimensional imaging (that is, enabling results with fineness down to the micron, or so, as I suggested earlier) obviate these unwanted striation artefacts (however minuscule they are) in the plastic object?

Nice job

Great video ! 👍

That's a very nice looking VW engine. Can you share where you got the .stl files from? I couldn't find them on Cults.

Well that looks good

enjoy your content and really curious about 3d printing would the ELEGOO Saturn 4 resin 3D printer be a good 1st printer. Thank you

Thanks for these videos. Question, do you ever use the “detect island” option?

Great video James, I'm liking the idea of water washable resin.

Excellent review Jim! I think I’ll be checking that resin out, especially for smaller parts that can be troublesome getting off the supports due to brittleness. I think I have that calibration file you used…..that is a very good gauge of what’s up with the exposure settings. 👍🏾

You do such amazing work. Even though i won't get a 3D printer i still find it interesting on how you do it

Cool James, real nice buddy 👍👍
