That's impressive. Did you design it yourself or did you find those files somewhere?

That's a massive feat to render that whole thing for 3d printing! You doing this for yourself?

thanks, i started building from scratch and done 2 crawlers, a toyota HJ-45 pickup and a Nissan Patrol Safari Y60...but when i got the 3d printer 3 months ago, i was still trying to decide on what i would do, being a fan of big rigs and knowing that the tamiyas are quite expensive, and also, knowing that tamiyas are only in 14th scale, i decided to do a big rig in 10th scale. From then on, i decided to have all my builds in 10th scale...after looking at what available materials i can easily get my hands on (most hardware are from home depot) i started designing the Kenworth K100.

Thank you cooper_xl.... i will be using styrene sheets for the exterior panels, dashboard will be 3d printed also the seats, rest of the interior is whatever materials i can get my hands on... some textile or maybe faux leather for the interior panels, there will be a bunk bed..... i would like it to be as realistic as possible.
