First draft 3D print fuel tank
Printer finished sometime last night with the first draft of the forward fuel tank. I don't know how to use CAD stuff but my buddy Keith can send me STL files and I am just getting dangerous enough to get something off the printer.
Just off the printer with supports still attached. This first draft tank was made just for testing and only has 2 shell thickness. It is good enough for test fitting and making any mods needed.
Keith suggested printing the final version in two parts to allow some internal structure for extra strength on the front and rear faces and then joining similar to a conventional tank. Final version will be printed with a translucent PETG. Estimated volume is 55-60oz.
