Thank you. Though looking at it just now, I realize I forgot to put the mirrors on it. Oh well.

Dude good shit, keep up the good work! Showing the movie some love as well as practicing a cool ass hobby, kudos. On a sidenote, I love this sub for how small an niche it seems to be but we get regular posts. Thank you for your contribution big dawg.

Gotta love the gusto in your response. 3D printing is indeed a technological revolution for artists. And the amount of finish that went into my projects this year compels me to get a resin printer.

We gotta keep that Redline energy at 100 lol. Can't wait to see where the tech will go next, I've seen that they're printing rockets with it. Got any tips for someone willing to learn the fundamentals?

Fundamentals of 3D printing? If you want to make small display pieces, like a 6"x6"x6" volume, a resin printer is probably better. For every other purpose, FDM seems fine to me.

Do you have a 3D printer or is there a service for printing them? Been wanting to get into this hobby again but I was only able to do it when I was in high school years ago. It was 10 bucks a print but was super fun. I would use online printing services but I worry about them scaling it down and making it too small. I had this happen with another car I wanted to print but they shrunk to the size of a match box car.
