3d print downloads

@cwo-marc
And when you consider how all the other units, tanks, fighters, bombers, and infantry are all their own scales, having consistency in class seems to make the most sense. At least to me. Even if units are the same size in real life, as you said, its easier for non-historians/enthusiasts to pick up the game if unit type x is scale size x.
Maybe if this was just a naval game or a land war game, then all units could be the same scale. As 3D printing becomes more common, I was interested in hearing how others approached this.
Thanks

Does anyone have a pdf download map of axis and allies global 1940 2nd edition? young grasshoppers is all white( no map), and imperious leaders is 1 piece. I need to print this in 8 1/2 x 11 sheets of paper. Size no more than 35"x 5’,6""

Wow … 10 years ago I did that!

Any discounted coupons that are current for printing Maps at Office Depot/Max?

These are great. Laughed at reason 11 on the video- good one!

All my boards are on 5mm foamex boards.
Waterproof, fade proof, and really hard wearing

For things like factories, shipyards, etc a simple home 3D printer works fantastic.
For things like infantry, it gets dodgy, though you CAN still make it work ok with the right settings.

I use a Monoprice Mini Select V2 (found at https://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=107&cp_id=10724&cs_id=1072403&p_id=21711).

Under $200, small buildplate (which is perfectly fine for these uses) and out-of-the-box functionality (no need to put anything together, just plug it in and you’re ready to start printing essentially). You can use basically any PLA 3D printing material for great results.

Finding the settings that work best for what you’re doing takes time, as does either MAKING the 3D files (which requires some level of experience) or finding the ones you want to print (thingiverse.com is the best source I’ve found for free to use files).

@IWillNeverGrowUp would you be willing to post some images of parts you’ve printed on the mini? I would love to see some comparisons to the IM OOB bits.

Will do once I get a chance. Just moved into a new place and everything is a disaster here. ;)
