    Nice! I opened these up in meshlab and they seem good. It looks like these parts will print with minimal effort.

    Well, that rather was the idea. Supports will be necessary for the forward base to get the casemates to print properly, and for the aft bit for the platforms/overhangs, but the rest should be easy peasy.

    I did leave out mounting holes, because I figured people might want to do things their own way. Or just glue them on.

    What type of glue would you recommend for PLA parts? I just finished painting all the parts and ready to join them together to add more details to my Nassau. I removed the previous wood superstructure, and learned how to use my son's 3D printer with the files here.

    BTW Thank you to whomever made the files for the dual rudder/ idler wheel / servo mount files. This will dramatically improve the turning radius on my ship!

    Either CA or E6000 will work on PLA.

    Glad you're enjoying the files - I'll be looking forward to seeing it on the water. Or something. (Send pics!)

    Oh, and yeah, I like using E6000 for my PLA and TPU superstructures. It holds things together nicely. I think I prefer acetone for ABS, though.
