Hi everyone!
My fist goal when I goes to 3d printing was, like many of you, to make pattern and mold to make castings. Didn't move that way till now but start another project: making the locomotive project that I am machining in metal in plastic 3D. Beside the interest of having a cool object, it also give me a real size view of the piece itself, making it easier to visualize and prepare the setup. The idea is to get it mechanically functionnal but many technical constraints need to be consider...
So here is where it stand for:![IMG_0440.jpg IMG_0440.jpg](https://canadianhobbymetalworkers.com/data/attachments/9/9107-10b0a52fdee07ab9fd6e124f37d6c88f.jpg?hash=ELClL97ger)
