I'll get some more pictures up, later today, but basically this is something that I've always wanted and finally got the chance to have.
I printed this myself, after purchasing the files. I have to admit, these are bloody amazing files. I had a few hiccups during printing, and this was narrowed down to a corrupt flash drive. I can't wait to get this one done and on the shelf.

Show us the pictures!

Bozzer Author
I shall, Martin. Just need to get back in the cave and take some. I can tell you that the chassis is very good. It lines up almost flawless.

Mona
oh there's the uhmm...trailer 😉 👍

Bozzer Author
After dinner, I'll make sure that I grab you both some pics 😉

Bozzer Author
Ok, as promised, just for you guys 🙂

Martin Oostrom
It looks so weird in that milky plastic

Bozzer Author
@martin. I bought some ABS-like, transparent resin, so I could use it for clear parts. What you see is, 2mm thick clear. I've not tried it any thinner, but for my taste, it's not good enough to use as glass for cab windows, etc? However, I'll give it a try, soon, just for a sample. Even i can be wrong, sometimes?

Martin Oostrom
You're not wrong, you tried something new that didn't work out as hoped. No shame in that!

Nigel Chapman
How have I missed this?
Wow Bozzer that is awesome. I agree with Martin it does look strange in that colour. At first glance I thought it was bread dough!

The original mistake was how I orientated the print. Also, I cured it in my machine. On the second attempt, I cured it slowly by sunlight and started assembly before it was fully cured. That turned out better, because I was able to get a better joint and the Super Glue held it better. Still a little filling, but a much better result. My plan is to light sand everywhere, then apply a filler/primer. I need to source this, but I will.
You boys will appreciate this....
The wife walked into the new cave, and stopped talking!
She's now aware of the stash that I've accumulated, during her absence. She said that I must have spent a lot, on kits?
I told her that they're cheaper than hookers!
When the swelling goes down, from my black eyes, I'll start modelling again!

Mr D
Looking great 👍
What is it made from??
I've never come across a build like this??

Martin Oostrom
You should have gone with 'cheaper than booze' 😂

Nigel Chapman
Taken out of context 'starting modelling again' doesn't sound much better 🤪

Bozzer Author
Lol, she was cool with it really.
@Mr D. This is an ABS-like, clear resin and printed on a resin printer. It's the largest resin build, I've done, to date.

Mr D
Thanks Bozzer, learned something new.
Looks a fun project, all the best with it 👍👍

I have been out of the loop as my summer has been very busy. I shall be very interested how this comes along. I can afford a 3D printer, I simply do not have the space for one.

Nice work. Resin printing is hard.

Bozzer Author
Thanks gents. I'll be honest and say, 3D printers are a great tool, however I still love to do scratchbuilding. I can print and it zips away, while I paint, sand, glue, etc, but getting out my steel rule and measuring a length of plastic, then turning it into something cool, makes my heart pump faster.
When I watch you guys, create your own masterpieces, it spurs me on. The inspiration that I get from some of the modellers on this forum, is priceless.

Oh, I forgot....
There's a special limited edition Convoy 4K UHD twin disk Blu-ray dvd that's coming out soon. Currently it's on pre-order at Amazon. If you are a collector or fan, it's a good buy.
RIP Rubber Duck, your legend will live on.

I'm here. In case you come back to do some more work Bozzer 😉

Bozzer Author
I've actually laid down some primer, and that revealed a few gaps and bumps. So, I sanded and filled, primed again and checked, and yes, there's more sanding. I'll get some pictures of it.
Glad to have you onboard Yingy. You'll like this 🙂
