Fallout T-45d Power Armor - Fixed

thingiverse

I was having trouble slicing the original model with slicer, so I ran it through a program the original author told me about and was able to get them all fixed up and slicing. Posting here for others to use. Update: I've added plates of the NCR and BOS versions of the armor. These plates have each piece oriented in the best way that it prints for me. The goal was parts that are strong enough to not break when putting the figure together while allowing for the easiest to remove support material. You will need supports and likely a brim/raft. I used a 5mm brim (might be excessive but it worked). When it's done, you'll want to use some pliers and an exacto knife to remove the support. Once the support is removed it should fit together nicely. If any parts are slightly loose, you can use some clear nail polish to tighten the joint. The only piece I could never find a satisfactory orientation for was the lower torso/waist. As designed, it is supposed to allow for waist twist. In the orientation I have the plates at, the joint to the upper torso will most likely break. I've found no good way to orient this piece that makes it strong enough for the pose-ability it offers and still is easy enough to clean the supports away from. It would be stronger lying flat, but it makes the sockets for the legs very messy/difficult to clean out without breaking the surrounding real material. So I've settled for simply super gluing the waist in place.
