About This File
This is a download for the Imperial Dalek Gun Box Surrounds. The files are in .stl format making them easy to 3D print or to use as digital references/models. This part is 1:1 scale and match the most recent revision of the Imperial Dalek plans making it plug and play to print or easy to scale to your Daleks needs. I personally 3D printed these units to create a mold that allows me to cast the part with perfect detail, SLA printers work great to get to that finished look quicker. As noted in the plans; the original props where easily damaged during filming do to the ball joint openings being thin, I would suggest slightly flexible resin for casting or 25% infill for plastic printing to give greater resistance to stress. The parts look great as 3D prints alone with some filler and primer and detail work. The surround piece has a 101mm recess in it to allow a 100mm ball joint to stick out as they do in the show. Included in the download is another file that is the same but without the recess for those that don't want it. Recommend printing these parts slow and precise at 15% or 25% infill for best results.
(Would love to see any print results from anyone who chooses to share on this thread)
