No martin, if you look at the weblink it's in half a dozen sections printed vertically which seems pretty usual. I'm not one to use designs directly off the web but the principles are the same, the print is orientated for best quality and reduced scrap support materials. I printed them on my wanhao I3 mini printer but gluing half a dozen blocks together after didn't work too well and my wanhao mini has had awful problems with the summer temps and didn't print well at all (I replaced most of the bits and stopped short of throwing it in the bin until I realised it was ambient temps that were causing all the problems and not the printer parts). I stitched the hull sections together in tinkercad and printed in 2 sections bow and aft on my Flashforge Guider II (it can print 300mm high but this works out about 400'odd mm so 2 sections of 200'odd mm each). My Guider II has had allot of problems also to do with high ambient temps -I nearly threw the towel in with it also until I realised it's air temps rather than the components. There is a horrid join in the pic about the middle which didn't set right. That dark grey gloop is JB Weld which I tried for the first time. Hear good things about it but not convinced about it for modelling purposes yet. I should hopefully be able to re-align, bond the gap and sand back.
It's a "hybrid" print. I take advantage of the printing, but a combination of all modelling techniques and materials, so as far as I'm concerned, no different from a semi-scratch build on a commercial GRP or polystyrene hull -just with the difficulty of making the hull in the first place.
...I was asking a while back about your small-scale puffer build on the mayhem website, there was talk of a vac-forming but never got any feedback on it -I guess it's permanently on the shelf or junked since? I never asked Sarik about their old puffer moulding -figured there was no point as they had lost some things a while back and I see there's more hulls dropped of the list the last 6 months now also.
