MDG22 Spaceship toy No.6b (smaller sized) - no supports - easy print

Mini toy sci-fi spaceship separated into easily printable pieces, enabling the opportunity to customise the colour scheme. Great for those looking for a non-franchised and non-weaponised space themed toy. This is the smaller sized version of the ship.

SAFETY WARNING: THIS MODEL IS NOT FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN - THIS MODEL HAS SHARP EDGES, AND SMALLER PARTS THAT MAY BREAK OFF AND BECOME A CHOKING HAZARD. THIS MODEL DOES NOT COMPLY WITH TOY SAFETY STANDARDS!!!!

● Easy to print parts - no supports required

● Designed with colour breaks. Print parts in different colours on single colour printers for a more interesting look.

● Requires multiple #4 x 3/8" pan head screws (or 4G x 9mm sheet metal screws)

● A Phillips head #1 screwdriver is also needed. Very helpful (though not always necessary) is a hobby knife, a selection of small files, and/or some sandpaper.

The part orientation as per upload is correct. Some parts require a little bridging while printing, though still print well enough without support. Interconnecting part fit may be tight, depending on the plastics used, or the printer/slicer settings. Carefully warming female parts (hot water works well if printing in PLA) can help with assembly, as can some careful sanding or filing, or even reducing/enlarging the part size slightly during printing.

Multiple #4 x 3/8" or 4G x 9mm sheet metal screws are used to join parts throughout the model. All but one is hidden when the ship is complete. Assembly in the correct order is necessary, though it is a puzzle that you will need to figure out yourself :) With correctly sized parts, no glue is necessary. Lastly, and in general, I get great results printing on rafts.

If you like the model enough to download and print it, please consider taking a pic or two, and posting a make. I like those!

Happy swooshing!
