Glad those wheels worked out. Did you put bearings in them? Bushings, maybe?

I recently saw a thread of the T34/76 in 1/6 scale. Yeah, I was salivatin' like one of Pavlov's Pooches. And there's a guy on RCTW that's 3D printing a T-35 (massive multi-turret beast) in 1/6 scale. 1/6 scale!! Talk about a monster. It's over a meter and a half long! It's so big that if he assembles it in the room it was printed in he won't be able to get it out the door. Here's a photo of the T-35, imagine that in 1/6! Shows what a madman Wayne is. I love it!!

And if I can get this friggin' SLA printer to print it should open new doors. I still have that roadwheel file, I'm a wee bit curious to see the side by side difference in print quality. I guess I'll get a good idea when I print tires with flexible resin and compare to the TPU tires I have now. If I can get the damn thing working, that is. I'm sure you've seen me whinin' in other threads so I won't go into it here, but hopefully we'll have some sort of resolution by the end of the week. Or pack it up to ship it back!! Can you say "Peopoly! Yay!"?
