    Model printed out beautifully. I just had one hiccup printing the black tail section. The part came loose and I had to stop the print. Fortunately, I caught it right away and there was a nice clean top layer. I was able to clone the tail section, cut it at the failed layer, and glue the remaining section on with hardly a noticeable line. I did cut the base way down and remix it a bit to come up with a much simpler base that suited my shelves. All in all, a VERY nice model!! Now I just need a "Red Oktober" ;-) Downloaded from Maker World: https://makerworld.com/en/models/203030#profileId-223363

    I've been wanting to do a ship model for a while now. My Grandfather had quite a few model ships. He of course mainly did big sailing rigs and made out of traditional wood. He even did a few ships in bottles and even a ship in a flashlight bulb! I've always been a fan of modern ships, especially WW2 Battleships, I have "Big Mo", the USS Missouri save to eventually print. It of course wont be as big as the one displayed at the OKC VA. I don't have THAT much room unfortunately. ;-) I found this model on Thingiverse and figured it would be a good starter. I scaled it down to 50% to fit the space where I'm going to display the model when finished. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6128507
