3d printing a space hulk board

Ive only got these 2 sections printed so far, still in the design phase and working on getting my own 3d printer so i dont have to pay for each part.

looks decent, though you may want to hollow out the backs of those walls if you havnt already, they look a little thick.

Also, going forward, if you have the resources, I found that for my own Space Hulk board project it was more productive to print individual walls and then stick various floor bits to a wooden board with a grid notched in it to hold walls, that way you can play other games like DH using the same set of stuff.

What's that cost per section?

I'm skeptical that it's more cost effective than buying a resin set from someone like Ainsty

Still a work in progress, so hollowing out backs and bottoms is still being worked on but the printer makes them mostly hollow on the insides anyway, plus the wall sections were printed laying down and I was worried about support.

cost per piece? High (30$ for just these) if you get them printed by someone else; very low (1-2$) each if you have your own printer. My main concern is how long it takes. My plan is to print one each of all the parts I need and then mold them and cast in resin.

Filament is really cheap. For me with Sainsmart PLA, it is about $0.10 a section. Best way to get cheap terrain IMO.

Would you like to share the stl files? I have acces to 3d printers at school.

OP should totally make it out of wood rather than plastic, USE YOUR HANDS, CARVE LIKE A MAN

Once you finalize your design, you should mold it off instead of trying to print the whole thing. Dental plaster probably works out to even cheaper, and molding's faster.

I'm actually a pretty good woodworker but right now I want to learn 3d. I made a space hulk board out of wood long ago. before I learned to mold. As for Dental Plaster - I've worked with that too, but resin holds up better to hard use, dropping, and doesn't chip as much.

I'm hoping to finish my set, test it all and then sell files to people, and eventually cast sets and sell those too.
