I love that you have "belt channels" between factory buildings. Looks super good! I wish I spent more time on interiors. My HMF factory looked great until I tried to conform a design inside the factory shell, and I just... Gave up. It's producing and I don't want to stop it! But once I had it rolling and started decorating, then I decided to care about what it looked like. Sure, the belts and pipework look good, but the integration of walk ability and nice lighting? I really should have considered that before I slapped some walls up, hmmm...

The bends were easy. I did both left and right directions a single deck, one tighter turn, one wider turn. Then stacked those prints for the second deck. The hard part was getting everything EXCEPT the foundations to line up and be coherent. I'll add homebrew light posts from blueprints to slopes and turns after placement.

It will be more of a struggle when I start figuring junctions and merges/splits into the design, having to make one item, like a t-junction, between two different prints. Even the 6x6 blueprinter may not be enough. All of my current prints were done in the 5x5.

4 foundations wide. There is an 8m ceiling height from the lower deck. After a bit of testing, I maybe should have gone 9 meters, but it's fine!

I found more pictures accessible from discord, but I'm having problems getting them to post. I'll work it out when I get home this afternoon.

Maybe this will work?

There we go!

Another interesting look.

And another! With rail!

Bravo!

Although it's been sporadic for him as he is no professional, my dad has always sculpted as his creative outlet. His best work being from the time period after we lost my mom. His chosen medium are various woods, but when I had an interest myself, he would show me carving techniques in soap bars and create initial sculpture(s) in clay before attempting to remove material on the final workpiece. I only made a couple things in wood, but I got more into charcoal drawing and music and didn't explore the third dimension much more (until I got into modeling on the computer for practical/machining purposes). I imagine CAD design and 3d modeling programs likely had an impact on the interest in physical sculpture in general.

Vulcanize, haha. All good, though!

Oh man, I love Way Out West!

Yeah, young folks are moving away because they've been indoctrinated in liberal college institutions and lured by a gay communist urban agenda to destroy rural America and bring about the decline of Christian conservative values! Nothing at all to do with capital consolidation and market monopolization resulting in reductions of diversified local markets and diminished job prospects! Increased cultural exposure due to accessing instantaneous global communications and social media? No way that has any influence in the decisions people make about what cultural environment they'd prefer to raise their children in. SmallTown USA is the best place to escape all the scary ideas that exist in the world, like equality among gender and race, and socializing the excesses of the private. Who would want to live in that kind of world?!

Now you have to make a giant guitar for him too.

Wow, thank you very much!

Wood shakes Wood(s).

v0.4.0 I appreciate it!
