Bismarck Superstructure 3.1

Ready to print, multiple part, little support needed.

    My rework of the Tirpitz Superstructure created by Greg McFadden

    Decks have been added to the tower.
    The structure has been hollowed (most wall sections are 6mm thick) and cut up to make it printable on an Ender3 or any 200x200 bed size printer.
    This was designed to use minimal supports. The largest single section is the funnel and forward hangers which will need support.

    Wood plank 'texture' decks

    Locating pin holes (7/16" rod) have been added to make sections removable and aid with assembly.
    1/4" square dowel needed to properly assemble and locate the tower sections.
    Bosses for the two masts have been added.

    Parts that require multiples are marked as x2 or x3 indicating the number of copies needed.

      Woo 7’ thats a big boat.
      I’m not really sure what else to add. I should update it with non-light parts as the walls on the admirals bridge are a touch too thin.

    Excellent prints. The only issue I am. Having is the larger sections which will not fit on my Ender 3 bed . If they could be cut in half I could print them .

      The four L1 sections should -just- fit on the ender 3 bed. That is what I printed them on. However I have been considering revising the layout of the sections to reduce single-part print times.
