For anyone that may be following along. SD3 for the win! Needs to be cleaned up but supports snapped off.

S3D is well worth the price of admission.

Sorry, I am fairly new @ this, what is sd3?

Simplified 3D

Very happy you sorted your problems, and I must admit, I’ve only been glossing over the submissions, but…what is it?

It’s commercial slicing software: http://www.simplify3d.com/
Edit: sorry, perhaps you were asking about the model, not the software?

Yup, what’s the Model?

@Mike_Miller just a piece of oilfield equipment. It’s composed of another 3 major pieces, and I haven’t counted the fine details. The print is a .05:1 scale, to give reference to the amount of detail in the file I’m trying to capture.

Nice! I tried printing out Mount Vernon (George Washington’s home), and it was to similar scale. Ended up looking like an UberHotel for a Monopoly game (you know, what you buy after the property had 4 hotels on it…sudden financial death for whoever lands on it.)
