More rivets. These should have been 7 lines, but whose counting? :))

Started work on the MK103 cannon.

As said: I'm replacing the MK101 cannon for the MK103.

This is the 3d drawing I'm working on of the ammo box.

The cannon itself I ordered from MDC. The barrel will be from Master.

Smooth as silk. 

[JeroenPeters]

First test print. Fudged up the size, so this print should be a few mm’s bigger, but i’m happy with the detail.

 

[JeroenPeters]

Printed the ammo drum in different angles with different settings. Looks like this one passes.

Also working on the MDC resin mk103. A bit of a dog! Lots of bubbles and mis alignment. 
The flame damper is from the ho229 ZM kit. 
 

[JeroenPeters]

The resin quality of the MDC gun keeps annoying me.

Downloaded a Mk103 file for 22 euro's and wil print one myself.

Which software do you use, is it an AutoDesk product?

Hi,

I use Cinema4D. This software is not the best choice for 3d printing (better suits visualisation), but it is a program that I can work with, so it will have to do. Here's another part of the MK103 cannon I'm preparing for printing.

 

[JeroenPeters]

First print looks succesful.

 

[JeroenPeters]

Just bought another brass barrel for this gun. This one has a locating pin at the base which makes it easier to insert into the 3d print

 

 

[JeroenPeters]

Here’s the printed mk103. Even thought the barrel end came out nice, the master barrel is way nicer so i replaced it. 
almost ready for paint!

 

[JeroenPeters]

Compressed air tanks are reprinted and curing in uv light.

Sure looks like it doesn’t it?

[JeroenPeters]

Finally happy with all the parts. Added eyelits to the mount that fit the eyelits on the mk103. Some black paint as a base.

Someone is seeing day light looking good Jeroen

[JeroenPeters]

The annoying thing is that ZM did make the mk103 cannon but never released if in a Hs129 b2 kit. 
 

[KevinM]

If that's your handiwork Jeroen in the pods all looks great from here.

[JeroenPeters]

Discovered I forgot to model and print the ejector chute.

Managed to find one or two lousy photo's that show this part.

 

[Martinnfb]

Nice research and design work Jeroen. 

[JeroenPeters]

Ok. So slowly getting there. I think i reprinted every part 10 times. At least.

The ejector came out perfect in one go though.

 

[harv]

Wow !!....harv 

[Martinnfb]

Boom!, Now we're talking! 💥

[JeroenPeters]

final part. The barrel clamp that holds the barrel in place.

Tiny tiny part, so interesting to see whether the printer can do tis. Asking for trouble...
