Last of the Lolas T-150/T-152/T153 series I started two years ago. Mark Donohue finished second at the 1970 Indy 500 in this car. This is the target:  For this build, the TOOL is 3D design&print. Screen views of some parts: Front axle  Ford DOHC turbocharged engine  Rear axle  and some views of full car    Finally printed in home resin printer, with parts for 1/25th scale and full in 1/43th scale.  Not bad but will require some post processing. Also note below left a test print for engine in 1/64th scale. |

Looks Great! Couple questions: What kind of 3D printer do you use? Been thinking about getting one. And... How much will a kit cost me!  |

Beautiful JuanJo are you thinking of making a kit or at least selling the engine? I know I could use at least 4 of them

No price per kit or engine as long as the success of prints does not exceed 80%, now at 30%  . Thanks for your interest. |

I've been printing the modern Indycar in 1/43rd with an Elegoo Mars 2 without much trouble once I made sure I added supports in the right places. |

Looking good, what troubles are you having? I've been printing the modern Indycar in 1/43rd with an Elegoo Mars 2 without much trouble once I made sure I added supports in the right places. In addition typical bad connection between supports and parts - if I use thicker supports I have more difficulties to detach them, a few more issues: deformed parts  broken parts  prints of the same file that come out well (left), with losses (center), or directly wrong (right)  |

#1 Without seeing how it was laid on the print surface, the first image appears as though the bottom layers of the print didn't ahere properly to the printing surface and kept 'drooping' as the additional layers were added.
#2 Was the broken area connected to a support and possibly snap?
#3 The left one appears that the print supports failed in that area of the build surface and everything fell to the top. The center one almost looks as though you may have a bad area on the LCD? I'm not certain in any way on that, but that is my only guess based on how half of it printed perfectly fine and the other half just went missing.

Juanjo:
I’m pulling for Palou too! I won’t be a bit surprised if he wins. He reminds me of Rick Mears, with speed and savvy…
I will be with Burd, watching on his son’s 85” flat screen…Everything’s bigger in Texas!

Very well done, the internal detail is outstanding! Did you print the clear windscreen as well?
