Hi All,
Many thanks for your interest and feedback. Apologise I have started my thread with no information of the design process, which I should mention.
Well, the design started with old plans from Polish publication back to 1967. I used scanned drawing to lay as a background in my software and draw over with frame profiles. Quite simple, yet tedious work.
Once the hull shape was completed, I hollowed it to give 6mm wall thickness and split into manageable by my printer sections.
Added decks and started to design wheelhouse and skylights which are by the way, the only structures on this small vessel.
Now I'm working on motor mount and rudder mechanism, then I will continue with other cosmetic details.
Regarding the comment from Neil about the joy of building the model in the traditional way I totally agree, and some day I really wish to make some ship using those techniques. The reason I decided to go modern way is just because I already spent tons of hours on my computer and thought it might be an interesting project. Also that 60hrs of print was the time that took printer to produce the hull section, involving myself very little. Only design time is something to consider, but as I mentioned before, this is my major part of life.
As an update of progress, filler arrived yesterday, so tomorrow hopefully I will start some finishing on hull. Also motor and some other hardware laned in my mailbox this week so I can start to scratching my head how to layout the propulsion
