I'm gonna watch your progress, if that's ok?
I also have Blender, but I'm damned if I can even make a start!
I know what I want to do, I just don't know what I'm doing, lol

i need a serious course on Blender too... when i do that, i will certainly get a 3D printer 😉

I wish I had the skills to do this kind of stuff. I've been poking around in Blender but nothing close to this! If you want to get your feet wet in this black art of 3D design, try tinkercad. Fairly lightweight but the learning curve compared to Blender is like a bicycle vs. an F1 car!

I've heard of Tinkercad, but never looked into it. Guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend now? Cheers buddy 👍

thanks for the info Mike!

Merry Christmas everyone! Sorry I had not responded or posted anything regarding this project. I hadn't been on the site and just saw the replies. Thanks for the positive comments. I have done a considerable amount of work on the model design including the electronics, LEDs, etc. I will post later this week with some of the test parts I have made. With regard to Blender, my advice is to use it once a day and try to make something, even if its simple to learn the interface, workflows and modifiers. I watch alot of videos of others to learn.
