Hey guys, so assuming I just print 1 copy of each of the 20 sections, do you have an estimated time for the whole print?
Thanks
Matt Barker –
You need to think about what type of trench you want to create before you begin printing.
For example, A 100 x 100 mm large trench section will take 3 hrs to print. So in a day, you could make a 400mm long x 100mm wide trench. Then you can start to print some bendy sections and T Sections.. and so on.

Any chance you’ll expand this to make WW1-style trenches? With the forthcoming Blood & Valor game from Firelock, it would be great to have deeper, wider trenches with firing steps and elbow rests on the parapets.

A good suggestion, We’ll add it to our list of suggestions for our next historical kickstarter.

Would you consider creating a set of gun pits / MG nests that would complement/tie into this trench system? I think that would go over quite well, most folks playing BA and other games have larger, crew served weapons in the game.

A good suggestion. We’ll add it to our development ideas.

Anyone had issue with the w-11 file? It’s causing a failure at about 65%. Knocked it right off the build plate. Printer seems fine so I’m restarting it. See what happens
Jo Boorer (verified owner) –
I looked at the file in the slicer and saw no issues. Are you using a brim?
Blathian (verified owner) –
Yes I use a brim, printed a second time and failed at exactly the same spot in the same manner. Every other piece has been fine. Looks fine in cura.

Have you considered adding the open lock system to the full trench pieces? Would make playing with these on the table much more enjoyable.

Thanks for your great suggestion. I will add this to our updates list.
