Hi Guys Nice work Andrew and an excellent illustration of how talented and computer savvy guys like yourself can help to widen the availability of cars that may never get produced otherwise. Are you offering your design for sale on Shapeways?
BTW, if S- scalers think they’ve got it bad, consider the modellers in that other “ideal scale” TT. While you are hunting through the Shapeways site, check out the TT rolling stock that Alex Hristov has designed. Also Proto87 modeller Rene Gourley. The S Scale Workshop bought a batch of his double archbar truck frames in 1:64 a while back and they’re pretty neat. Rene had an excellent article on 3D print modelling in the March 2012 RMC. I also interviewed him on Episode 35 of The Model Railway Show which can be accessed at TrainLife.com. Just click on “audio”. I also interviewed Alex Hristov on Episode 26.
