The New 3D Printing Thread

Ah I see, thank you for the information! I haven't found anything yet with those siderods, looks like I might have to open up Solidworks.

I have been looking into resin 3D printers, but unfortunately my wallet disagrees with me having to buy one I have a friend who uses them to print his Warhammer models and from what I've seen, the prints come out in very high quality with tons of the smaller details, I think something like that could be really useful for making Tomy parts.

Right now I currently only really need about 3-4 of those siderods, so for now I think I might go the casting route. In the future I will definitely go ahead with the resin printer. My endgoal in this learning process is to be able to make a complete engine without the use of finding a donor engine. Not exactly sure whether that's possible, but most of the parts seem to be readily available. I could be completely wrong.

But again, thank you for the information and thank you guys for the wonderful welcome! It's good to be here.
