After 13 years or so I’m getting back to my 1:8 scale U-3. Just putting the finishing touches on the Allison from scale-3D.com. I had to do some adjustments to the Turbos to make the space between them wide enough to go around the CMB 67. In the background you’ll see a dummy motor I did with wood and copper tubing and fittings. Not bad looking at all but weighs close to a pound! The 3D printed version is 7 ounces now and likely will be less when I trim a lot of the bottom of the block to get it sitting right around the CMB. I got close to paint in 2008 but Im going back and making some changes and I’ll post pics as I progress.
