Lj's USS Texas(BB-35) SJS 3D Print complete Kit build

To quote the Joker, "And... here... we... go!"

 

How’s it going? Made any progress?

 

Still waiting on tax return.
Reno is going to make some guns that I need at shipping cost.

 

AFTER TAX RETURN:
POSSITVE- I now have 3 good debts. car, truck, and insurance.

NEGATIVE- I can't order a 3d print for a little while longer. I don't have a job yet from being laid off in December for HVAC. I have 300.00 left over.

 

I was wondering. Where did you pick up the large plan drawin sheet from?

 

I ordered them from my local poster store in Spanish Fork, Utah.

J-Mart Printing

 

I can do a Texas with 3d printed "experimental" decks for the "Texas Kit - NO DECKS" cost on my site. If that is something you would be interested in. The "ship kit combo discount" that discounts all of the functional internal component parts I can always retroactively apply if you need or want to split the whole order into two smaller purchases...IE the ship kit itself to get started, followed by the electronics and such later as funds allow.

Of course, don't' take this as financial advice

 

WHEN you put it this way then YES lets do it. (little kid at Christmas) I understand its not financial advise. Just advice from one hobbyist to another hobbyist. 1/2 now. Then 1/2 later when I can. I do appreciate you willing to work with me and understand my situation.

Logistics
THANK YOU for being willing to give the discount later.
Lets split the whole order into two smaller purchases
1) ship kit itself to get started (no decks)
2) electronics, decks, and such later (whatever is necessary and being offered)

 

I try my best to take care of people, I will get your order printed up and all the other items assembled and shipped out ASAP. Right now there is 1 ship ahead of you in the production queue.

 

IM IN NO HURRY. Its all good. For the future order I do want wood not plastic unless the plastic we can get to look like wood.

 

Never mind on wood. I would rather do printed because the ship is painted not exposed wood.

 

Finally got my job. So I will be able to get this built and enjoy this hobby.

 

How’s the print coming along bsgkid117?

 

Your hull is finished printing pending inspection and support cleanup. Decks are printed. Superstructure is about 75% finished. Hopefully still on track for a Monday 3/17 ship out date.

 

Sweet

 

Has it been shipped out yet?

 

May I suggest you take this conversation offline?

Also, Will’s a stand up guy, SJS is a great company, and all the hulls are made to order. Rest assured you will get your hull as fast as is humanly possible.

 

Thanks Justin,

@LjWolf303 I got tied up yesterday and Tuesday, hoping to have some time tonight to pack your kit up. We will make sure you're posting here about building it as quickly as possible.

 

Forgot a tray of about 40, 20 and 40 mm guns that decorate the deck. But that's not going to delay this thing being on the porch tomorrow for UPS pickup! Looking good if I may say so.







(Dowels/tube/etc for tripod masts and such aren't included hence why the towers fore and aft look kinda...compressed. The levels are just sitting on top of each other where normally they would be flying on the tripod masts.)
