1895 Torpedo Boat

thingiverse

Update 4/10/18 ** tweaked the deck and hull a bit + lightened things up she will float but a bit low in the water. Also added pics of it floating in the sink, not too bad. the V2 deck is lighter even and in the test model in the pics it's stable, just a bit low. The USS Maine was designed to carry two of these torpedo boats that were developed in 1895 - unfortunately just as the USS Maine was nearing completion the speed test conducted on the first craft showed it was about 5 knots slower than specification and the decision was made to omit them from the USS Maine. I designed this boat to go along with the 1/72 USS Maine that I am designing in Fusion 360, it's about 10 inches long at current scale but you could size it up if you wanted to. the Hull is not sliced so you'll have to do that in meshmixer, I recommend slicing it into 3 parts. All the other parts should not need slicing unless you have a really small printing bed.
