I don't have any familiarity with Linux versions - but the print dialogue in Adobe Acrobat has color management tools in the Advanced Print settings. Check the advanced tools in the software you're using to print PDFs to see if they have an equivalent. Hope this helps, Gabe

6-pounder, Royal Navy cannon barrel - George III era
Gabek replied to Gabek's topic in 3D-Printing and Laser-Cutting.
Final (?) product. 1:64 6-pounder Royal Navy Cannon - George III era I printed these at 0.03mm resolution in Anycubic ABS+. If anyone wants the .cbddlp file created for these prints (with supports) just send me a message. If anyone chooses to print these out I would appreciate a photo! I hope this helps, Gabe 6-pounder cannon_.stl -
6-pounder, Royal Navy cannon barrel - George III era
Gabek replied to Gabek's topic in 3D-Printing and Laser-Cutting.
Hello everyone, In response to people who have warned that there might be a split in the .stl where I created the complicated curved bodies I checked the meshes in Fusion 360 and I do believe that they are stitched correctly: Thanks for your input, folks. I will be posting the .stl for this file shortly. Clear skies and sharp tools! - Gabe -

Thanks, Phil. I do use Chitubox on occasion so I'll make a point of checking for these errors. Regards, Gabe -

Thanks! I had spotted that earlier and they were placed on the end like you recommend on this version. Regards, Gabe -
6-pounder, Royal Navy cannon barrel - George III era
Gabek replied to Gabek's topic in 3D-Printing and Laser-Cutting.
I'm sorry, Lieste - I don't quite follow you. The lines on the cascabel and the muzzle appear to be artefacts of the drawing (Fusion 360), not seams in the model. I'm printing in resin at 0.03mm resolution and have yet to see the line and there isn't any kind of infill. In the slicer (Lychee), here's what the model looks like: -

Gabek replied to Gabek's topic in 3D-Printing and Laser-Cutting.
Hello folks, Based on suggetions from @thibaultron and @allanyed, I've made some more modifications to the 6-pounder. Namely, I added the trough, reshaped the cascabel, and adjusted the breech rings. Here are a couple of screen shots. Once people are good with these latest changes I'll post the .stl and .cbddlp files for everyone to use. When I feel up to it I'll make a gunlock for this cannon. Regards, Gabe

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
