3D Printed model ships
Model ship building is usually a labor of love, with single builds lasting for months or years. I'm patient, but I don't mind speeding things up a bit. Just finished a build in 3 months, where a similar model with traditional wood construction took 5 months of build time... not bad.

Parts are a mixture of SLA hull, SLS cabins, and polyjet details.
And here's another, a 1940's seaplane tender, 27 inches long. SLA hull and cabin, polyjet details, and investment cast brass details from printed wax patterns:
