JimmyC Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) Hey guys, Sorry its been a few days since my last update, I printed the main shell again and then made some more adjustments in the 3d program. I'm working on getting the Glock so I feel okay releasing the files. I also printed a new glock body (it took 21 hours) with the clip in. it looks nice but i found that i'll have to reprint it AGAIN! The outter grip that covers the glock grip was too far off the model (this is why I print tests). The good news is, I have a few small things to print tomorrow to see how they turn out one or two things still left to fix on the model, the whole thing to print again (including the glock) organize the files and that's about it. I'm hoping for sometime next week to be done. and it better be soon; my girlfriend is about to kill me. The trigger of the actual glock has a safety on it. I have this on but jammed in there real good. This thing is fresh off the 3d printer so it needs a lot of clean up. I'm hoping to leave some room in this bad boy for a 9volt battery and a couple LEDs and hopefully someone more experienced than me can hook up more lights and sounds. I don't have my TFA armor yet so I'm not sure how large to make the holster screws, so those are just place holders. I'll try to make an update soon with more progress.

Ciscotiger Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 Great work! Very impress with your work so far. Thanks for sharing, good karma! Quote
JimmyC Posted October 13, 2015 Author Report Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Alright, just a quick update again. I have one last part to update in the files and then the main section and gun needs to be printed again... and we should be good to go!! This image has some final parts, including the M4 sight, back section that holds the gun in (have already been cleaned up in the file), and the flash in the front. and I put the old gun back in because it's hallow and I wired an LED / 9 volt in the main section. it looks pretty awesome when its a bit darker. I have not tried fitting any other Glock in the shell other than the printed ones. but I'll leave that to you guys... I'm hoping to have the files for you all soon! -Jimmy Edited March 14, 2021 by Sly11 Edited to restore images Sly11 2021 3 Quote
Griffin-X[TK] Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 You got some serious skills there Jimmy. Great work overall and much appreciated by the community! Cheers! Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 Do you have any reference photos showing the LED? Quote

Vader1[501st] Posted October 19, 2015 Report Posted October 19, 2015 WOW! Outstanding work!!! Looks great!!! Quote
JimmyC Posted October 19, 2015 Author Report Posted October 19, 2015 Thanks guys! I'm very very close here. I'll post some progress pictures tonight. Do you have any reference photos showing the LED? Well, other than the plastic Nerf toy has a red line about right there, I only have one and its very faint. let me see if i can dig it up... Is that a US Standard Tactical Bananna, or an EU Issue Bananna? Banana is for scale... I'd say its US Standard, and it was delicious by the way... Quote
JimmyC Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Posted October 20, 2015 Alrighty, big POST... ! I think I have it to where I like it... here are some assembling photos! This model has very little sanding. I did it all in White and Black ABS plastic (Acetone works as a permanent bond with ABS plastic and the ABS Acetone paste can make amazing plastic filler. It also can shine it in small amounts), so there is a little bit of cracking that needs to be filled. lots of sanding ahead of me. I've already removed all of the support material. I would highly recommend jewelers files if you don't already have them. I don't have the screws together yet, since I'm not sure what to use, but if its anything like the kids toy should be pretty simple. main body The GLOCK and how it connects. I'm doing this for the community and for people who have 3d printers. I did all of the black parts at once which took about 11 hours The outer shell took about 19 hours (since i printed it on its side with infill) and if you were wondering the Glock (just the main body part) 23 hours and I plan on including this with the files. i've only printed one barrel and one slide and have only had to print the polymer rails (things on the sides and bottom once.) That flat piece on the side took 20 minutes. here are my printer settings on most of the parts .14 Layer Height 1.05 Shell .84 Bottom/Top thickness 50% infill Density 60 Print speed Support type EVERYWHERE Brim EVERYWHERE I left the LED out, since I cant find that picture. :-/ I swear I thought i saw a hint of red in one of them.. no matter, I actually got the LED's for the T5H's TFA blaster, took two seconds to solder up one to a 9 volt. -Jimmy 3 Quote
The5thHorseman[501st] Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 This is looking slick, man! Quote
ScottyK[TK] Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 James - Outstanding work ! Thank you for your efforts, the results are amazing. I have had a 3D printer for 4 years, and I thought it was going to be reserved for producing frogs and sliding top boxes. (hahahaha) Thank you for making these files, and making printer owners happy to use their machines on something COOL !!! Quote
TMacken[TK] Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 It's looking great, thanks so much for all your hard work. Quote
Griffin-X[TK] Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Looks really good, nice work! Yeah, the Nerf is tiny. I saw one in person last weekend and it's just a little toy. Quote
