That is my new mannequin of metro sort E which was the primary Prague metro carriage. It was in service since 1974 to 2007. My spouse wished make this mannequin of metro as a result of she remembered when she was finding out in college in Prague (Czech republic) and he or she went to high school by this prepare. This prepare was soviet manufacturing and I understand that in politician contexts russian machine just isn’t cool.
I drawed the mannequin in Sketchup and printed on FDM 3D printer (Prusa MK3). The size is 1:25.

Hello!
That is completely wonderful!
Might I ask when you draw and mannequin this in SketchUp? Was it the identical course of as Cotty described me in his thread- export as .stl and used a slicer software program? I’m not positive what’s a slicer software program if there are some which might work finest with SketchUp, or that is one thing simply as controversial than another subject? (Render softwares tec.)…
Nice piece of labor! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for reply,
sure, the mannequin is drawed in SketchUp. If you wish to mannequin in SketchUp for 3D print an important factor is all of the components have to be “Stable Teams” or “Stable Parts” and make it with appropriate faces. Nice extension for that is “Stable inspector 2” by thomthom…Slicer is one other software program than SketchUp. In slicer you may put together the mannequin from SketchUp (in STL file) to information for 3D print (G-code) the. You possibly can set variety of backside layers, high layers, permimetres, infill or helps and many others. and you then slice authentic mannequin to every layers (codes for 3D-printer)…Within the pic, up is imported STL file from SketchUp and down is sliced mannequin with setup. You possibly can see inexperienced helps, darkish inexperienced brim, orange perimetres and pink high layers. Then I add file with G-code to SD card and begin 3D printing
