    Just a tip from someone who works professionally with 3D printers: just use a pot with hot water and put the parts in for one minute. Then you normally can easily pull of the supports (sometimes depends on the used material). Just make sure it is not as hot that the parts also start to bend/deform.

      Advice I got was to start with hot tap water, and if it doesn't do enough, add splashes of boiling from a kettle until it works.
      Another good option for longer pieces is a hair dryer, they can direct a pretty solid and controlled amount of heat.

      Hey there King, some of the print texture is very hard to remove and it would require a lot of time and effort, but the best way is to accept the model for what it is - a raw 3D print (and that already makes it pretty unique!). It's also surprising how much can be hidden or obscured by paint :)

    When watching you grind that resin, I just had to say something. That paper mask isn’t going to keep those super fine resin particles out of your lungs. I recommend getting a 3M 7502 mask with some P100 filters, or equivalent. When sanding, do it wet. You won’t know you sucked up too much resin until it’s too late and you become hypersensitive to dust. Just trying to help.

Since the hull looks like it was printed standing on its front, that's per mm of the length. Plus it has to be cleaned and cured -- and they have to account for failed prints in their costs.

    I agree that kits like this are probably going to be far more common in the future. I was surprised at how well done this particular kit was. Very cool.

    Finally, I was interested in this hobby before but couldn't find any cheap and good kits near me. Lately, I was thinking about whether or not I could just model and print my own tank model. But thanks to this video, you have sparked my interest in this hobby once more. Looking forward to the end result!

    Awesome! I've been hoping to see how a 3d printed model is worked on by a model whiz like you. Very cool! Thanks for sharing!

    That is a real "unit"! Pretty impressive Martin... I like the figure choice as well.
