3D printed resin technology

[markfj]

Like many model railroaders, I have other modeling interests besides trains. While watching a review of an Mk1/Ka models upgrade set for Trumpeters 1/200 Titanic, I was blown away the quality of the 3D printed resin parts include with this kit. I mean; WOW!

These are really nicely detailed parts with minimal witness marks. I would go as far as to say these parts are "better" than some plastic injection molded parts I've worked with over the years.







I hope this technology become much more prevalent in the model railroad hobby.

Wow, really smooth. I'm looking forward to being able to print some of my designs using such a printer. Those GE Dash 7 cabs and hoods would look great printed that smooth.

Resin printing does still have some downsides, but as fast as this tech is advancing, I can not wait to see where we are in 2 years.

I recently got a Mars pro, and plan on spending Chrismas vacation figuring out how it works. Or fixing the drywall in my garage. Work before play and all that jazz.
