I've finally completed the Saturn V rocket that spacecraft/rocket fans have been constantly asking me to build.
Features of this design include:
1. The process of launching this rocket, landing on the moon, and returning to Earth was all reproduced as desired.
2. Efficient color segmentation tried to color the prototype Saturn V well.
3. I tried to express all the details based on various materials.
This design, like the other rockets I've designed, is large and has a lot of parts, so it will take a long time to complete a print.
There are a few things to note about this process.
1. Depending on the separation phase of your rocket, there are things you can and shouldn't use glue for. Please check this carefully.
2. The characters are slightly skewed for better printing. Please check the direction of this tilt carefully and put it in advance before bonding.
3. Fold the escape tower well and insert it well into the hole at the bottom of the launch escape system and insert it well into the hole at the top of the boost protective cover. And use adhesive to fix it, so you have to be careful to fit it vertically.
4. The lunar lander's landing gear fits well by turning and twisting it like the pistons of the heavy equipment I designed. These landing gears have a slight indentation where the U-shaped structure fits, care must be taken not to break this part.
5. Alphabets are written from A to D on the booster stabilizer fin of the first stage rocket. Please check this order and the position where they fit.
Please check out the video for more details.
As always, we hope for a lot of support from fans in the aerospace field.

That is awesome. I built one out of PVC pipe and wood when I was in school 30 years ago. My parents still have it in the attic.
Your models are awesome, and the Saturn V is excellent! I'm about an hour away from completing the Saturn V and it looks like an off the shelf model. Great design job and thank you!
Thank you for watching and comment!!! I will do my best~
Going to print this for my grandsons. It was an amazing piece of engineering before computers and calculators. They can't make one today.
Thank you~ I hope your grand son likes my design~
That is amazing, I love your models!
Thanks for watching~ Please enjoy~
How amazing! I purchased and printed this model, everything fits so perfectly. Well done indeed.
Thank you so much for your purchasing! Could you share your print photos on my review page? you will get point for buying my design.

Thanks!
Thank you, I have been looking for a good model of the Saturn V to print and there has been a few and I mean very few detailed ones. Your models and the X1 Carbon work amazing together.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy my design~
I will and have always enjoy your files they are VERY well done and detailed thank you for you time and effort in these.
@@fimmerson Hello. I'm total newbie with X1 ;) Please,can you share your setting you used for this great model?
@@Frantisek7403 Ya you bet everything was stock, the only thing that was changed was the temp while at the higher speeds.
Just printed this model, it is very precise and looks awesome!
Thank you for purchasing!
Amazing work! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you~ Please enjoy~
What a great video I would love one of those to put with my other saturn V rockets
wow, awesome work!! I love it
Thanks for watching~ Please enjoy~
I need a new white roll for this. Awesome design!
I used esun new white PLA for white parts. www.shop.fab365.net/lerdgepla
Please enjoy~
Good job!
Now you need to make the launch pad and tower, then the crawler…..
LOL!
Kidding about the last part.
Next?
How about a full shuttle stack, unless you already have done it?
Thanks! Please check! ruclips.net/video/O3l_tQi-QOg/видео.html
Great model
Thank you~ Please enjoy~
Thanks, well done.
You are welcome~ Please enjoy~
Looks like a great file!
The stray cement brush bristle was triggering my OCD 🤣
😅😅😅
Stunning.
Thanks for watching~
Maravilloso! ❤
Thank you for watching and comment! Please enjoy~
Some great engineering here. Very nicely done!
One thing to correct - none of the flown Saturn Vs had 'USA' on the S-IVB (3rd) stage.
Really? I will check. Thank you for your informations.
Now they have 2 stls for the third stage and one has no USA on it. I accidentally printed both. I downloaded the model and my only complaint is they are unclear on the parts that you need to print multiples of. I have figured it out with this video though so no foul. I printed 2 plates and still have to go figure out what pieces I need for the third plate because some require multiples. I could have done it in 2 plates though.
Espectacular!
Thank you for watching! Please enjoy~ 😁
Completely exelent... thanks...
Thank you! Please enjoy~
Awesome !!!
Thanks! Please enjoy~
..great model...just bought and downloaded.....
Thank you so much! Please enjoy~
u are the best!
Thanks~ Please enjoy~
do you do a launch tower for this one?
Could you ask or vote on my request page please?

Thank you~
Magnifique ;)
Thanks for watching! Please enjoy!
Congratulations from Paris.
Thank you for comment! Please enjoy~
It's a fantastic model! I would love to print it myself some day. I would just like to point out a couple of things, anyway. The S-IVB had a J2 engine installed, same as the ones in the S-II, but the one in the model looks almost like an F1, a bit too big. The second thing is that I find the LES tower to be quite off-scale, looks like it's too small in the model. Thanks for the video, really satisfying to watch the build!
Yeah the S-IVB engine is definitely too big. A little bit of a shame, but luckily it's usually hidden.
Great !!!
Thanks for watching~ Please enjoy~
A question 'What is the name of the glue you are using?' I have just started printing and I would like to know the glue you are using . Made a few of your models now very impressed with how they come out . Thank you.
WOAH!!!!! MAGNIFICENT!!!! The LEM could use a ladder on one of the legs though, and that detail on the LEM shroud seems HEAVY!!!! Am I right, or am I just old?
You know very well about Saturn V rocket with detail.😁
Great model! I really like the fact that painting is not required if you use different color filaments. What is the total height of the complete rocket as built? It looks like its about 600mm?
Thank you for sharing this model, it looks amazing. I just purchased and downloaded the .STL files but was wondering if there is a written instruction manual that goes with it, or do I just rely on the video? Thank!
Thank you very much for purchasing. We don’t have instruction manual. This video only~
Excellent. I Subscribe
Thank you very much for watching and subscribing!
I would love to know your printer settings. There aren't any visible layer lines so thats amazing. Love the model.
All the settings, materials, etc. are detailed on his web site.
I know this is probably been asked, but what are you using for glue? I have a hard time find something that works.
Already ordered and downloading now. What brand of CA glue do you use Goo?
Thank you~ I use this glue. www.shop.fab365.net/loctite Please enjoy~
Have you considered making a pair of supports so the Saturn could be displayed on its side?
Could you ask or vote on my request page please?

Thank you~
I love it, but I do feel as though a little more detail could've been added (the orange fuel tank toppers)
Nice build, I remember making this as kit a long time ago, maybe you could print a Falcon Heavy to the same scale.
I made falcon heavy. ruclips.net/video/DfAIVl9LiVo/видео.html Please enjoy~
Any advice in upscaling the 3D print by 25 - 30%? ...what to look out for?
Bigger print is better. Just do it~
Wooooow
😆 Please enjoy~
I'm struggling with part "Fab365_Saturn_V_Third_Stage_Assembly_Mid_Black" it's almost 400MB and my slicer keeps crashing trying to load it. I'm on a 27" iMac running the latest Bambu Slicer. Tried it many times but it hangs after about 75% importing it into the slicer.
I have discovered that the size of the file has caused an error for certain slicer. I have fixed the file and so please download the file again.
Thank you for your understanding.
@@fab365_official thank you Goo. I will try again now and give feedback
is this possible to print with Resin printers?
Perfeito.
Thank you for your comment! Please enjoy~
This is huge. How long did it take to print it. Is awesome, by the way
I printed 2 days with many 3D printers.😁
Looks great! Just wondering though about some of the design choices. Some parts just click together but others need glue. Why not make everything click together?
For clicking, it needs enough spaces.
What type filament is used for these parts? Thanks
I used PLA filament.
A true work of art. I have a question about the parts at the 11:05 point of this video. Why was this printed as four separate pieces, when it could have been printed as one??
On the real Saturn V these would have come off the rocket as 4 seperate pieces so maybe realism?
@@fimmerson As you say, they were four pieces on the real rocket. The four pieces aren't glued so the lunar module can be accessed.
At 12:30 you can see the four pieces being removed to access the LEM.
Ya this print was freaking amazing to do and I managed to get it done in about a day and a half
What solvent are you using to join the parts?
I use this glue to attach parts. www.shop.fab365.net/loctite
Love the Saturn V, but stage 3 does not have USA on it. Would be nice if you could remove that.
Thank you for your information, I will check~
*sigh* - now i have to buy some 3D-Printer asap.... :-)
You must buy 3D printer~
Applause! Applause! A fitting monument to a special time when the nation united, went to the moon and won the race by planting the flag:

@@fab365_official Just so you know, I finally received the email verifications at about 2:30am. For some reason there was about a 5-6 hour delay. Thanks for the reply.
wow i wish i had a 3d printer
What glue are you using?
I use this glue. www.shop.fab365.net/loctite
Lego wants to know you home address..
THis is F-in GREAT!!! 👌👌
im laugh when you be the manual turn table... why hahah
😅😅😅
Does this model still fit and work the same if scaled up a good bit?
Sure~ Please enjoy~
@@fab365_official Thanks!
