Boat with interchangeable parts

thingiverse

You can use waterproof epoxy to glue together the pieces. The pieces are interchangeable. There are different models for cargo and military vessels. At the moment, there are no propulsion methods. I'm working on motor integration, propellers or some alternate method of propulsion. You may need to re-size and add support structures. This work is still in progress, so stability issues, propulsion issues and potential other problems are still, unfortunately, present. Currently, I am working on finding a way to keep the boat stable, without requiring too many non-3d printed parts. If you find any issues that i haven't mentioned, please comment them below, and I will try to get around to fixing them. The you would be pretty much my favorite person ever if you actually fixed them and sent me them so I can include them in my next update(you will be credited for making the part). If you make parts PLEASE LINK THEM! I will include them in my next update and credit you. Hell, you can even put your name on the part. But seriously, make parts! To edit the STL's, you have to use a CAD program. Linked below are two free ones. Blender: http://www.blender.org/ SketchUp: http://www.sketchup.com/ Use the blank model for new peices! Happy Printing =) Instructions I like 3d drawings, I like printing these drawings. I also like boats, and interchangeable models. That's it really. The Battleship and Cargo ship models are inspired by their respective real world counterparts. I made the models in Sketchup and touched them up using Blender. Again, feel free to modify and upload these files on this site or other sites.
