  Update. 3 hours in and it looks like the engine is finished, its going to start on the "wings"
  and internal compartment now In the pic you can see the antenna at the back and towards the front the Power cell holder. plus the engine (Its surrounded by printed supports at the moment, and there is a bit of stringing due to higher than usual temp)

  I remain convinced that 3D printers are not a product of technology, but sorcery.

  We mastered fire, electricity, and can build things that make spaces COLDER than they should be. We have doubled the life span of individuals and can replace entire sections of our bodies.

  Don't you mean "Splat, splat, splat" (mimicking the sound a Seamoth makes whilst running into Peepers and Spadefish).

  Peepers and spadefish? I think you mean:
  "Splat, splat, THUNK"

  Things that broke. The antenna on top, (recoverable) The seat (recoverable) and the steering wheel as expected, which might be recoverable. Next steps are to get rid of the strings, sand it and that might be it, I am not much of a painter. Either I try to paint it or I move onto the cyclops/some other asset next. In the mean time I will fix the retraction on the printer so the strings are not an issue for the next print.

  Also I will use better material, This blue pla has been sitting about for 4 years which probably cause some issues

  Man I wish I had a 3D printer. I would of made a small replica of the lost river skull and put it in an aquarium.

  What printing software are you using? I recently got a hold of a 3d printer, and would like to try some of this stuff out!

  I wouldn't had thought there be a problem with you creating these for yourself, the issues tend to arise when you want to sell them!
  
  Great work so far btw.. why don't you design the cockpit in clear plastic and then get shapeways to print it for you?
