Also im going ahead with this and purchasing ASAP, so if anyone else has anything at all. could be games parts puzzles etc hit me up.

There are alot of things on thingiverse website too

Just tried a few characters to model them up, they would look very similar to that out of the machine (besides the rough edges which are just the copy past printscreen etc

What are your thoughts?? these can be made as individual letters then printed seperately. i can include an arched back so they fit to the boot more snug but im not sure what radius the boot arches at so its just flat currently.

Surface finished would need a quick sand, and i can do them in black so it wont be hard to paint black over it

[QUOTE=Pimpreza;689005]Is the plastic UV stabalised? I'd hate to see a gauge pod crumble after 6 months of summer sun & heat but sounds like a good idea.[/QUOTE]


I spoke to the distributor they said they have had something in the sun now for 14months and its only just started to discolour.

At the price it costs to print a new thing if someones failed after a year i can just print a new one :)

Looking pretty promising. When I saw a video of one of these printers for the first time it just blew my mind.

That is looking absolutely awesome! Even better than the real thing :D

With the factory badges, they're raised ~0.5mm at the centre (but with the double sided tape on the back, I don't know how much difference it's going to make). Dimensions of the old letters are 2mm x 40mm x 23mm.

am keen to see a pod filter box to be made!! keep all the heat out

ferozaj 25-06-2012 10:39 PM

Alright ill get a full set of letters done at those dimensions with 0.5 up at the back.

full Air boxes may be too large :(
