Thank you for video,Do you recommend this device or vibrating sanders like Proxxon 28594?for 3d printing
@rebelscale13 күн бұрын
I was using this one a 3D print, and I've used it since to remove the print lines. I like it. It will eat through sandpaper, so get some adhesive-backed paper to replace it with. But I think something corded like this is the way to go. The battery-powered ones don't seem as strong. I haven't used the Proxxon though.
@rebelscale13 күн бұрын
Looking at the Proxxon, it is cheaper, but then you have to buy the transformer station if you don't have it already. I would imagine they are comparable in performance.

How would you design a Mandolarian era U-wing? I would make the main body longer and wider. It would have the same hanger footprint. Just have the s-foil swivel vertically. The length of the main body would have the nose even were the blue paint starts. Add a single mount dorsal laser turret between the engines. Instead of 4 engine just 2 styled like the engines from the A-wing. The doors would be true airlock. The outer door would slide forward. The inner door would stay close while in space and have a half sized pocket door that would also slide forward. In atmosphere the inner door will open outward like a ramp to allow a fast mass exit. The longer main body length will allow 4, 1 sentient cabins. 2 on each side forward of the doors. The engine bay will have a bed for the engineer that lifts into the ceiling. The engine bay will also have a pocket door airlock. That is my plan for a kitbashed Mando era U-wing.

No… no no… no… Minor point: Jazwares is targeting the adult collectors evidenced by the chase versions AND the prices seen on eBay etc for those very hard-to-get releases Major point: the U-Wings have sliding doors on both sides of their undercarriages. They are (the U-wings) a near perfect example of an accurate copy of the cinematic U-Wings. Jazwares keeps upping their quality with each series. They CAN do sliding canopies..
@rebelscale3 ай бұрын
@@mr.miniaturesmodels8465 The U-wing's door is much bigger and thicker, and the mechanism is huge. To put that on the E-wing would look bad, especially with how the nose narrows (not an issue on the U-wing). Not to mention if it was thin, it could easily break. People have already broken landing gear because of how tight they were installed. I think the pop up canopy, which is how it was in Legends, is a good compromise of playability and not making it bulky or overly complicated. It's still a great display piece. But I do get the desire for something a little more accurate. I'm still angry at how inaccurate the LAAT was.

I love your joking logic on Jazwares making a Star Destroyer because it’s included in the insert, and all of the other ships on the insert have been produced. It would be awesome, but a 1:72 scale Star Destroyer would be about 72 feet and 11 inches long (1/72 of 1600 meters is 22 1/9 meters). It would be about four stories tall (but some of that would be the bridge tower). You’d have at least two stories of livable space through most of its interior.
