Description
I built a cab only version of the wtmicro willys body and wanted to add some scale flare so I designed this exhaust stack. Stack can be glued where needed, the flat sides also allow it to be used as side pipes if desired, or get creative with placement for other possible uses! Roughly 1:24 scale, should also be very usable for 1:18 or similar scales.
In my testing, it prints best upright, especially on a dialed in printer. Laying it down and trying to print horizontally left artifacts in multiple prints, so the print profile is set up for vertical printing.
PLA doesn't seem to paint the best with typical weathering paints, so it's best to coat it in something like paint, clearcoat, glue, etc prior to weathering if you aren't able to print it in your desired color. But as soon as there is something for the weathering paint to stick to, it works well.
