here is the stair SPLIT to fit the printer; Note the top and bottom tabs and insert holes to aid in assembly. Once assembled they won't be visible.
I hope to have this printed next week.

I cannot thank you enough Alan
Regards,

It will take maybe 19 hours to print the bottom half; the hours shown as print time is usually not very accurate as yet. I'll start the Print Sunday morning. It will not be blue, as the color resin I am using is Gray.

Fantastic. What are the gray parts? The part that gets cut off?
I looked up your location. You are near a few Menards. I have a Rebate coming from them for around $26. There are none anywhere near NY. Would you like the rebate card when I get it?

really not necessary, but thanks. I do this 3D printing and laser cutting for OGR members as a way of giving back for all I get from the OGR forum.
I rarely get to that store, I'm a Home Depot guy.

The whole thing is printed in gray; the gray shown is the support structure that is removed.
You are seeing it right side up but the print is printed upside-down
John I think we discussed this before; the width of the stair is 1.25" which in scale is 5 feet or 60"

That sounds right. Only two people can pass by each other on those subway staircases.

Printed the stair for John; then make some changes;
added railing posts and drainage
not sure of I will print this one.

Master class work Alan. Although I haven't painted mine yet literally everyone I have shown it to, their jaws dropped. Even the case evoked applause.

Alan,
Absolutely fabulous job and appreciate your gracious contributions to this group.
OOC what is the approximate cost of the filament materials you use? Do you need to change rolls during the entire printing process? (I am ignorant of the 3D printing process.)
no rolls used; this is done on a Low Force Stereolithography (LFS) with a LPU resin tank printer. The tank fills with resin automatically when it's too low.
Alan thank you for sharing your skills with us, through your posts and through your generous printing work for members. You produce magnificent work.
