What would YOU or YOUR FRIENDS want 3d printed?

[TheXModelRailroader]

Two sided HO scale stand alone business signs. Currently, I could use one for a polynesian restaurant/ tiki bar. And I could also use a "Mel's Drive-in" sign.

This is defiantly one I can do! I had something like this I already made for a friend.

Got my part yesterday, printers back up. I am going to try and diel in some settings today, get it printing smoothly.

I think the ball and socket joints between stack cars would be welcome, I'm sure we’ve all gone thru a few of those.

Can you print window frames if you have the dimensions? I'm considering a scratch built production facility and I'm having a problem finding the required windows. This is a copy of an existing structure so just anything won't do.

 

[Iron Horseman]

Care to elaborate?

Well not the Salina Kansas, Missouri Pacific station. That has already been done.

But I would take a Shawnee Oklahoma AT&SF depot. It has a turrent.

Your good. We all do every now and then!

Yes
I have found since getting back into model railroading, that the majority of people I have heard from have interests in historic places or things that they are familiar with or group up by. I like the old structures that use to be in Halifax many years ago.
Are you looking for projects to practice with?

Well, I have a lot I am working with right now (Thanks to all you guys giving so many ideas), but I would like to see what you have in mind. Whole reason I made this thread is to get a better understanding of what modelers might want.
My printer isn't that big, but you never know!

The following two items are still on my want list for sure. I will get to them eventually myself but if you want the work, have at it

Cool! The crane might not work, but i think we can do buildings. I will have to go through all I have and start making models. If I do this, I will be sure to let you know.

I remember a Mai-Kai in Ft Lauderdale; my dad took me there; interesting experience as a teenager.

 

[TheXModelRailroader]

Hey all.
I have been fine tuning my printers settings, and after printing a new fan duct, the pints are coming out ever so smooth!
I will be running a bunch of smaller prints and some other things I have wanted to try. Then I might start printing some of the things we talked about.

Looking forward to it!

 

[boatwrench]

Cool. I might be able to do that. Noted.

Pardon the untimely response.

That is what I was looking at. Not enough detail flushed out in that file though but that's the general idea. I believe Cox trains had a quarry line-up that had a semi trailer mounted crusher.

 

[TheXModelRailroader]

We are up and running!
Some test prints now that Dad’s printer is running. MUCH BETTER!
I will start on this list soon. In the meantime, I will show other stuff I print here. Keep you all posted!
