and Finally the Homestead Class modular space station. My own design, this station is funtionally modular, you can choose to print it as a 100% space farm, 100% fuel depot, factory, retail, repair yard or a combination of any of the modules attached to a core.

A space station of my own design. The Homestead is built to accomodate a range of different modules allowing for unique customisation. Whether you want a station that is entirely a farm, factory, system defense base, or a mix there is a module for it.This 'thing' is a collection of parts...

Have printed your Fer de lance and Chrysanthemum on my Bambu Labs A1 Mini. I printed them with the bodies scaled to 50mm long each.

Unfortunately the bottoms are a bit messy - have you printed them and if so which orientation did you use?

The Kinunir for 3D printing...

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7320616

Here is a song that I wrote...
The Ballad of the Kinunir
Patrolling in The Dark and the Deep Sectors, using an experimental Black Globe shield generator, the INS Kinunir desperately flees a squadron of Aslan Ihatae by flying through a star (hell). Whilst the immediate crisis is past the ship is stuck in jump space, doomed to wander for eternity trying to 'jump the boat down' to normal space. - A semi-mythincal ghost ship of the Spinward Main. (traveller RPG)

And The Lab Ship...

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7320625

You will need some sowing needles and a micro-drill to in order to attach the sensor antenae which are too delicate for regular 3dprint, I recommend threading insulated wires into the vertical linkage to give the look of exposed gubbins.

I can't guarantee anything that's been scaled smaller.

Okay thanks. Just thought I'd ask what orientation you used for your printing.

 

[Topaz172]

Okay thanks. Just thought I'd ask what orientation you used for your printing.

I would recomend the flatest face downward. But honestly I use 'shapeways' to print them for me.
