LOL... It makes Slic3r barf out a core dump. Too complex? It didn't eat all my RAM, didn't hit swap, but I see a memory call error. I'll try Cura.

Hey, let's give Ford a big shout-out for sharing one of their engines. A real engine block posted by a real car company is not something you get to throw at your printer every day. For competitive reasons, it can't be current production.

I think that's the Essex V6, and I remember this engine in a friend's 1982 Ford Granada station wagon - it was tough and it was capable, towing a boat down the freeway like it was nothing, still getting good gas mileage, pinging like hell but surviving a nearly completely blocked radiator, and in a beautiful body where we could flip down the back seat and unroll an RV mattress for the night. I loved that car. Fox-body fanboy here. :)

I wish Chrysler would share a Slant-6 like this.

Once it's printed, I'll make the block a tiny little engine stand. I know a Ford fan who will love having it on his desk.

Hey, Ford, if you're reading: Thank you.
