Thanks Doug. On this one I used gimp to remove the discolouration around the parts. The model in the pictures was made using a print I made later. Again I used gimp, this time to erase all of the big identification letters that were printed in visible areas of the parts.
This model was actually my second attempt. At first I tried using the tabs drawn on the parts, but as the tolerances were so tight I managed to slightly twist the model down its length. On the second attempt I didn’t use the tabs. Instead I glued parts that formed shapes to thicker card and built around them. This was much quicker and easier than cutting hundreds of little tabs.
