Reply to "MY SD40-2 IN 3D"

It's been a long time, but many other things to do in my apartment turned me away of the 1/48 scale!!!

Among those things, I built this kit with a friend of mine (no connection at all with the railway modelling but very useful !!!):

Back to the 1/48!

I received two days ago the front short hood:

I made an attempt, inserting a brass access door latch to see if it fitted: good result.

Unfortunately, a significant default appeared on one side:

Impossible to correct without breaking the part!

To make the printing easier, I reinforced on the 3D drawing the box by thickening the inner side; I made the same thing on the shell after the cab, everywhere I found these latches holes and there are many others too!

So I asked my "3D guy" to re-do this piece and I have to wait again............sorry!
