DLT-19x 3D Print WIP

[Traxx]

I was able to buy the DLT-19x files from surfinbird132 on Cults before he mysteriously took them all down a few days ago.

Posting my build progress here. 

So far I've got all the pieces printed out and did some 120, 220, and 320g sanding. Next step will be to glue all the pieces together with the dowel and pipe then bondo.

Finally getting some time to work on this again. Got all the pieces glued together.

I realized after gluing the barrel pieces together that they weren't properly aligned. I'm pretty sure that big gap between the cooling fins should be on the bottom of the barrel, not the top. Oops! It's glued in too tight, so will continue working on it for now to get some practice in. 

I got the gappy pieces Bondo'd together and sanded down and prepped for spraying.


First layer of filler-primer done, will add 1 or 2 more layers before sanding down again, then will start painting. 


The misaligned barrel shouldn't be too obvious when completed and definitely some lessons learned for the next one I'm working on.
