Windshield for 1/4 scale Temptress

Has there been any news about 3D files for the windshield frames? Thanks.

For now we are talking with a fabricator about having a batch of windscreen brackets made so they will be able to purchase as a finished part. If that works out well especially with shipping etc then we will probably not issue the files for the full size boat. 

I will still generate 3D print files for model builders though. 

Dan,

I'm not sure if you posted the windscreen frame files yet. I don't think I would have access anymore if you did. My email address changed since I purchased the 1/4 scale plans from you over a year ago. My old email was marosso@mail.fresnostate.edu and my new email is mrosso3k@gmail.com. The old account was a university account and I have no access to it anymore.

Thanks,

Mario

What happend to the windshields for 3D printing? Just purchased the file for the model and look forward to start my build. Just now looking at the plans and wonder how to cut the parts to long for my laser (bedsize 1000X750 mm) ...

Hi All 

Apologies for the delay with releasing this, windscreen files can now be found here: https://danleeboatbuilding.co.uk/product/temptress-24ft-runabout/ 

They include a modified .stl file that should work well for 3D printing the screen, there is also a pattern for the screen glass which could be CNC or laser cut or possibly printed and patterned manually. 

Let me know if you have any questions. 

Cheers 
Dan

Purchased the Windscreen files, unfortunately they are only as an STL. How can I fabricate from that on my CNC? Would have been nice to get the file as a 2D file in some kind. so I can open it in Fusion and fabricate them as you showed in your video. This file is rather useless in my opinion.

Btw is it not really doable to print them with a Bambulab filament printer and keep them strong enough, guess one is gonna need a resin printer if that would do the trick ...
