The Tools Behind the Build 🔧🎨

Every project has a story behind the finished model, and today I wanted to show you a little bit of what happens behind the scenes. 👀 These are some of the machines and tools that have been with me throughout this project: 🖨️ Uniformation GK3 Ultra – for the main resin printing work 🖨️ Elegoo Saturn 4 – another essential part of the printing process 💨 Gaahleri Turbo X compressor + GHAD-39 airbrush – for priming, painting and all the airbrush work 🔧 Hozo Neo Sander – for sanding and refining the printed parts I have to say that I was actually a little skeptical about the Turbo X at first. I’ve used compressors and airbrushes from much higher-end ranges, so I wasn’t expecting too much from such a compact and affordable compressor. But it has genuinely surprised me. It has performed really well throughout the project and has absolutely held its own, especially considering how affordable it is. Sometimes you don’t need the most expensive equipment to get great results. 🤘 Every tool has played its part in transforming a digital file into a finished physical model. And of course, a special mention to Gaahleri, the creators of this competition, and to the Turbo X and GHAD-39, which have been an important part of the painting process. 🙌 The final result is what you see in the photos… but these are some of the tools that made it possible.

    I use also the NeoSander. Not bad, but the sanding paper do not stick to the round shapes 🤔

      @bughunter I've tried several brands of sanders like that, and they all have the same problem... At the speed the head vibrates, the sanding pads come off on their own. My solution was to 3D print several sanding heads and glue the sandpaper onto a flexible backing with superglue. When the sandpaper wears out, you can easily peel it off the flexible backing. 😉🤘 I don't know if I've explained myself well 😅😅

      @arvinquezada Yes, Arvin. At first, I was a bit skeptical because of its size and the overheating issue, but I’ve used it a ton and it has performed like a champ. 💪🔥

      @javiercalvojccreaciones3d yep overheating is one top priority to observe just not try to prolong its use maybe an interval of 25 to 30 mins per use is ok
