Looks fantastic.  All the fine details seem to be nicely intact.  Great work.

Easier than the three I put together...How are you mounting the end walkways? What is the price going to be?

[davidmbedard]

The end platforms key in.....really easy to glue on.   The front will have pockets for 0402 leds for the ditchlights.    Interior will hold the headlight led.

Any chance of just buying fuel tanks? I have 3 Kalso kit I would like to upgrade...

Dave, any chance you might make this available as a kit?

David, those are all excellent designs and, I enjoy seeing the CAD drawings, but I have a question:  I'm curious why do you take photos of the screen to post them here?  Why not just take a screen capture on the computer where the drawings are displayed?  The photos show artifacts like the curvature of the screen and Moiré pattern.  They would look clearer and sharper if taken as screen captures.

The cab snapping into place is most satisfying... the engineering is far ahead of Intermountain locomotives. The detail level is pretty remarkable and to my admittedly untrained eyes the shell looks quite smooth for a print. It's really good. I want to dig up the HR-616 shell I bought from Shapeways a few years ago to compare to your pictures, the SD40-2F looks a lot better from what I can see. And my HR-616 is quite brittle, a trait your Barn doesn't appear to share.

With the right chassis there's basically nothing diesel wise that's out of reach now.

My sincere apologies.   My interface for these forums is on my phone.....thats what I know.   If you would prefer, I can stop posting camera pics of my computer monitor.   My computer is not on the internet.

David,

The shell looks great!  Way out of my era though.

I'm curious, what printer are you using?

Don't worry about it.  Scree grabs are way better then vaporware.
