Default 3d Printed Bodies?

Has anybody done any bodies, of any scale, on a 3d printer? I'm looking at picking up a printer with my tax return and just thought of maybe 3d printing the majority of a body or 1 panel at a time. I figure thats the only way I'll get the first gen s10 blazer of my dreams. I tried searching but I can never come up with anything when searching through taptalks app.

There have been a few I've seen around the internet. Check out DSPro, Mr Gerrish had made some Milex cabs... Unimog.

I say buy the printer and start building. You might find a ton of uses for it after you own it!

Josh, looking forward to your 3d printed bodies and other creations! Any pics of the micro bodies you printed and the 8x8?

If you look up a YouTube channel called RC Everyday, he has a guy on Facebook that makes his 1930's hot rod rc bodies. I'm not on Facebook but if you look in the description of his hot rod vids he shows a link to his body makers Facebook page.

A buddy of mine is in the process of building one up, roughly 24x36x24 tall. He's almost done gathering the parts for it so he can do this very thing, bodies in a monolithic print, amongst other things. I'll keep you guys posted on how it works out.

I've had this one on the shelf for a while, but haven't worked on it much in the last few months (though it's further along than this pic shows)
