Another Awesome 3d Printed Tank

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Model-building enthusiasts should find 3D printing an invaluable resource. The more adventurous can even skip the kits for a DIY model-building experience like Instructables maker “8bitwood.” He’s constructed an impressively detailed, small scale replica of a Russian T80 tank, working daily on this labor of love and persistence for nine months. The treads and wheels alone were produced over 900 printings but the end result is incredible. Check out more details: http://3dprint.com/30534/t80-russian...instructables/
Below is a photo of the finished tank model:

what the hell was he printing on ?
Must have been a very small print volume. one tread at a time wouldn't come close to half that. And there's only 12 wheels.

Holy crap the guy just reverse engineered from 2D layout....

Wonder if he did the interiors too ...
But even so his project should be some serious promotion for the equipment he used.
