Hi guys,

Is anyone able to handle one of these for me please?


Just the Saturn_V_Exhaust_Hollow.stl file, none of the rest.

The quality / resolution etc doesnt have to be amazing but online services are quoting mega money for it.

Many thanks

Not surprised the online services are charging a lot for it to be honest as it's quite a large and complex model requiring support structures and would take long to print. I put it into a slicer for a rough estimate and it said 18hrs and around £8 (400g) worth of filament. Factoring in that £8 cost, cost of electric of ~300w per hour etc, post and packaging you're approaching £15 in material costs before profit, that doesn't even count labour.

Doesn’t look that bad if just the exhaust plume, so happy to take a look.
Looking for it to be translucent at all for lightning?

EDIT: Ok, I didn't quite get the size when looking on my phone, wafflecart is correct for sure :)

Does it need to be full size at approx 200mm cubed?

How about you buy my modded Ender 3, and then do it yourself, and I put that money towards the X1C I'm looking at :D
