Morning all
I have finally taking the plunge and bought myself a resin printer. I borrowed a Anycubic Photon of a friend and played with that for a couple of months and decided to get an Anycubie Photon Mono X2. Its the Mono X with a few tweaks (little bit bigger screen and resolution) 

I have printed a couple of bodies - (photos soon) and some drivers and also some miniatures that I found on the 3D file sharing sites.

I am super impressed with the printer. So far I have use a green castable resin (came free with printer) and Anycubic Tough Resin and Anycubic Craftsman resin.

I have had good results. I think the tough resin by itself might be a bit too flexible for a body. What have others found? I printed an ERA body (I modified the file from Nimrod) and post curing found I could squeeze sides together - that may be ok but may be an issue with handling / marshalling etc. I plan to experiment with a mix of the craftsman and tough resin today to see how that goes.

If anyone would like to share tips, settings, resin mixes etc I am keen to learn.

cheers
David

SRC re-released their Tergal-sponsored Porsche 914/6 GT "night edition" Chrono. The yellow/green 914/6 was driven by the Spanish Fernández brothers in the Rallye Monte Carlo 1971. It was the fourth attempt of Juan Fernández to reach the finish line of the Monegasque event. The Spanish mountain champion was unable to succeed and it would be his last rally outside of Spain.

It is clear now that the SRC Porsche 914/6 in Chrono version is a winner.
The technical specification is the same as that of the Gulf Rallyslot 3 version, except for the Ultragrip Black Pat RN0104 rear tyres and the Max Black Pat soft MAX100 RN0115 spare rear tyres.
The Tergal Porsche 914/6 reissue is only available on the SRC website:

Up for sale is a Slot Classic CJ-22 Deep Blue Ferrari 250 GT SWB (Short Wheel Base) '60 Gran Turismo class winning 1960 Le Mans 24 Hours car of F. Tavano and "Loustel".

One of the rarest cars and very hard to find, handmade resin slot car in scale 1:32, number 48 out of 400 made.

The car is unused so is in brand new condition and has been in storage since it was bought. The box has some minor signs of wear though (see pictures).

Thanks for looking
