3D printing for Traveller

[gds73]

Just ordered a Bambu 2PS 3D printer. Once I get the hang of it I know will be printing all kinds of Traveller stuff. I will obviously be buying all kinds of STL files from 2nd Dynasty.

One question I have for those that are already doing this. What is your go to printed tile for terrain. While I will eventually get the Free Trader I am sure. I want to be able to setup different encounters representing different ship plans. For instance my next adventure in my at home campaign is Search and Rescue, so being able to layout things using 3D printed tiles representing the search and rescue ship or the subsidized liner would be cool. I see that 2nd dynasty has more than one option, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

And does anyone have a suggestion for a STL for a ATV something like was used in Mission to Mithril?

Plus, I am very disappointed I can't find any files for Geonee.

I print a *lot* of 28mm stuff for AD&D, printing is time consuming not forgetting painting on top. Scale matters particularly with Zoom sessions, 15mm is probably a bit too small

Camera setup is important too, I used both overhead and panoramic views, neither worked well, I’m moving to tripod cameras to move around the table for better perspectives and player enjoyment

How about mounting the 3d prints on a lazy susan and rotate it with the camera stationary?

I play mostly in person. So for me it is more about it looking cool on the table.

I have two dining tables side by side and we still run out of space

I recommend an architects draw for storing floor tiles, works very well
