I have been trying out my new 3D printer
I have been using a 3D printer now for over 5 years. My first was a Prusa i3 which I extensively modified over the years and looked more like some creation rather than a printer, but it worked. The problem I always had, was tall things being thrown off the bed 🤣 and slow printing. So now I have a Creality Ender5-S1 running Klipper software. What a dramatic difference. I was in the process of designing a 3D printable boat in FreeCad which was designed with 3D printing in mind. Then I thought someone must have had the same idea. Sure enough I found a speed boat on https://www.thingiverse.com/

    That's amazing....bet it takes a lot of work to programme it to do that.

    Thanks everyone for the comments and yes I will try out the tug one day. Next project is a DF65 ⛵. I already have two, one bought and one made in the conventional way of plank on frame with Balsa wood. I will take a look at the Dragonfly and post if I think I can do it. The CAD work takes longer than the printing.
