RGL Posted October 14, 2023 Share #1 Posted October 14, 2023 I got my hands on a test print of Micromaster’s 37mm Breda AA gun. These were on the foredeck of Italian battleships and recessed into the hull. hof00, Jack12477, mtaylor and 10 others 13 Quote Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDW Posted October 15, 2023 Share #3 Posted October 15, 2023 Wow, that is nice. 3D resin printing is a game changer. The details are so clear and near perfection.

Canute Posted October 15, 2023 Share #6 Posted October 15, 2023 Looks like not much if any print artifacts. Excellent print.

Egilman Posted October 16, 2023 Share #11 Posted October 16, 2023 And the only time you would see one of these on the deck is during battlestations, live or drill ... They retracted into their armored silo while cruising or any other normal activities.... Very very interesting even if an overcomplicated installation... Beautiful model... yep, 3D printing is the future....
