Hey Rifleman_btx, I might have missed it, but what brand of PLA are you using? And how many printing hours do you estimate the entire project will require? I hope you haven't had any bad prints! That would ruin my day.Live Q&A every Tuesday and Friday at 9pm EST on my Twitch Livestream

This one is probably going to run about 90 hours. Ive been using Solutech 1.75mm, and so far ive only had 2 failed on this plane. And probably 6 on the Cessna. All fails were my fault doing them when i was little over tired. Ive been happy with quality of the filaments. I plan to go to the PBY and then the F86. But before then my son and i are gonna start putting together our own designs in fusion 360. Starting with rehashing my N9MB project, and then the OV10.

looking great!
I like how there is a growth in people starting to design more 3D printed planes that are less-frequently built/sold planes. Someone just released a PZL p.11c under the "3DLabGang" section.
I know for myself, I would like to design a U2 and Boeing's X32A entered for the JSF program, and possibly even try to make the 4-post configuration for the X32.

Here she is! The wheel bolts i bought were a tad short, so will need to buy little longer ones, and the seats and instrument panels are on the machine now. I've also made it take down capable, so storage and transport wont be a problem. Instead of the wrap around wire they used i made removable clips for the struts. They do work very well. All in all im happy with how this turned out. :)1 Photo

RMBTX, Which glue did you use for assembly? I figured CA Medium for the F-86, though I have not yet assembled anything. Did you have any parts that needed a bit of sanding or fitting? Best, LBI solemnly swear to "over-celebrate" the smallest of victories.~Lucky B*st*rd~
