3 D Printer Templates

[pendragonman]

Anyone know if there are/ where there are 3 D printer templates for the classical Traveller ships? A friend of mine has built a 3-D printer and it would be nice to see if we could print up some for our personal use. He is afraid that we may have to print them in halves and glue do to the shapes involved. If nothing else, we will learn something during the print attempt.

We have tried some T-34s and Mk-VI Panzers for use using PanzerBlitz rules and they came out ok. Had to print turrets separately but that was no issue as it meant we could turn them as needed.

Only one I've seen proof of is the Type S, and that's not available for use. (It was Andrew Boulton's work.)

I checked http://www.thingverse.com for 'rpg miniatures' and found some 28mm space suited warriors, and lots of terrain, but nothing for Traveller.

The site is mentioned in several of the Make: books I have for my arduino,

Hmmm. Is that the "ShapeWays" model?

There are a few different people over at Shapeways with Traveller or Traveller-influenced miniatures, simply search under starship or Traveller to find such there.
