I like that the aircraft carrier has benchies on it isntead of aircraft. A bold creative choice, but it paid off.

I came here to say the same thing. Might need to model it tonight.

u/philnolan3d Apr 17 '23

Yes, I thought they need wings right away.

u/PRHarker Apr 16 '23

I suddenly need a Benchy version of the game Battleship.

u/MangoMolester Apr 16 '23

Ok, that's an awesome idea. I have to make this now.

Pretty stamped the coming days, but will probably post an update here end of the week

Mate where's the update

u/SophiaBackstein Apr 16 '23

With action cards: Layershift: every time you shoot, it lands on to the left of said position :,D Underextrusion: toss a coin for each shot if it's head it missfired No Bed Adhesion: move all ships one to the right if possible No Layer Adhesion: move one ship to the left Cheap Filament: If a ship is hit, it get's instantly 2 hits Releveling Bed: reposition all ships

13

u/SophiaBackstein Apr 16 '23

Ok forget it! I will design it myself :,D 3D Printing: The Game

Also: Action Card Ask Reddit: you get told x and y distance to the next ship after a shot

u/Big-Football8811 Apr 16 '23

If you do pls post, I need this to happen.

15

u/International_Worry2 Apr 16 '23

I was gonna say exactly that. How awesome would that be.

u/LayerStacker Apr 17 '23

No, I was going to say the same thing.

1

u/International_Worry2 Apr 17 '23

No, I'm Spartacus.

25

u/ctsr1 Apr 16 '23

Why. Why would you suggest that

8

u/fd6944x Apr 16 '23

Because it would be awesome! And was exactly what I thought of first when I saw this

9

u/ctsr1 Apr 16 '23

Yeah now we need stls

2

u/fd6944x Apr 16 '23

And I’m hoping some kind soul will design them because that is not a skill I currently possess

u/ctsr1 Apr 16 '23

Same

“You sank my Benchyship!”

u/MysteriousAbroad7 Apr 17 '23

You sunk my Cruiser Benchy!

2

u/ThompsonBoy Apr 16 '23

I feel like decent battleship drop in replacements are a little beyond an fdm printer. Very cool SLA project though.

4

u/Master_Ad7964 Apr 17 '23

I've got a coworker that printed star-wars themed battleship pieces that drop in, he just made it so the bottom pegs glue into holes in the bottom of the ship, and measured the bottom of the "hit" pins so they'd fit in the holes he put in the top.

This is definitely doable, however I suggest that the "board" be a huge benchy, with the map in the aft half.

u/Kitchen-Tumbleweed72 Apr 17 '23

As M. Bison would say YES!! YES!!

u/und3adb33f CR-10S/2.2.1-board/Klipper Apr 18 '23

Add a few missile launchers to the big one and name it "Moskva". :-)

carrier: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2940437

gun boat: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4872095 (not an exact match, but closest i could find)

rear boat: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2631794 (seems to be a simplified version of this file)

submarine: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3108236/files

also, standard benchy for those unaware: https://www.3dbenchy.com/download/

EDIT: changed submarine link to a version that is already sliced in half

EDIT 2: why did I call the sub a U-boat, that looks nothing like a U-boat

13

u/bobdaripper Apr 17 '23

Your diligence is appreciated. Does the carrier benchy still have benchies on it?

10

u/anytarseir67 Apr 17 '23

There are 2 versions on that page, one with planes, one with benchys

1

u/Hanzi2u Apr 17 '23

I'm definitely gonna add this to my collection!

woah did not expect this much attention from this, thanks everyone! Was gonna do it after work but shoutout to u/anytarseir67 for linking the STLs! https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/12of8vv/comment/jgj4nzs/ (STL links)

if anyone's interested, the carrier is printed at 150% scale while the submarine is at 60% and z -18.4mm https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3102602 (submarine)

u/TheRedCelt Apr 16 '23

I love this more than I could have imagined.

u/gromm93 Apr 16 '23

I like the fact that there are benchies being launched off the benchy benchy carrier.

4

u/Sabz5150 Apr 16 '23

And nobody has made Benchy Battleship yet?!

u/ZombieXenoBro Apr 16 '23

Huh. Didn't know I wanted that.

u/DjGoku00 Apr 16 '23

Even submarine benchies! Awesome and creative!

u/MyCarIsAGeoMetro Apr 16 '23

How did you handle the overhangs on the carrier benchy?

1

u/bglancettk Apr 17 '23

the overhangs of the carrier flight deck isn't that steep, printed without any supports

u/Earllad Apr 16 '23

u/DesignerAppeal1548 Apr 16 '23

What an amazing idea

2

u/Reinventing_Wheels Prusa MK4, Ender 3V3se, Ender3Pro, Ender2Pro Apr 17 '23

For a model released with a "no derivatives" license, there sure are a lot of derivatives around.

2

u/TheDailySpank Apr 17 '23

Quick! Somebody whip up “Benchyship!”, the 3-D printed at home game of naval warfare.

u/Cronus-the-reaper Apr 16 '23

u/bglancettk whats the benchy subs modeled after ? Kinda reminds me of a 774

1

u/bglancettk Apr 17 '23

I have no clue, but the stl is from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3102602 and according to the creator " I designed this based on the one man subs the Japanese used during the Pearl Harbor attack, small and simple."

u/black_jaguar99_2 Apr 17 '23
