I've printed pieces for models before, but nothing that finicky.

How many hours did it take you to model the cab parts? I may have asked this before, but what software do you use?

Again, NICE WORK!!
Thanks, i think i used a mix of 0.16 and 0.20 layers... nozzle is still stock.... 0.16 for the really tiny pieces and 0.20 for the rest...took me a while to get this done as I have been busy riding my MTB during the summer... but if I had to do it full time, maybe 10-12 hrs more or less... i dont have any other references except those i can find online and its a mix of different cabs.... its all guestimate i would say...I only use autocad...and cura for slicing...
