Depends on the model and each components individual strength, geometry, and weight requirements. As a rule of thumb, for models using C-F motors 3 wall thickness's is generally a good starting point. I try to design all parts so that they can be printed with no infill and no support as infill...

I have a file for the 18mm Cox motor clips that I drew for a customer last year. They're not on our website but can be purchased for $1.50 ea or 5 for $5.00 plus shipping. Alex Boyce

We're working on that next......

We just released a new addition to our growing line of 1:100th scale Builders Kits a really nice Little Joe II. The Boyce Aerospace Hobbies 1/100th Little Joe II Builders Kit is a flying replica of the Nasa Little Joe II. The kit, when complete, stands 10.5" tall and makes a fine display...

About three years ago I designed a complete 3D printed parts kit to build a BT-80 sized P-270 Moskit missile for a customer. I've attached some images of the parts below. If anyone wants the stl files to try to make it fly I'll send them the files. I just don't know if the model can be made to...

For most LPR we use 1.25mm wall thickness. The slicer is set the 3 walls provided your printer has a 0.4mm nozzle. This will provide the best tradeoff between strength and weight.. It just seems a two perimeter wall thickness with a .4mm nozzle does not have the layer strength needed, at least...

Frank Burke asked us to model and supply some upgrade parts for customers of his new Buran/US Space Shuttle RC glider. We were happy to help. We now have the following three upgrades available for his kit at...

We recently CAD modeled the original Cox D motor retainer and have printed it in solid ABS. The retainers are virtually identical to the originals and are sold in a three pack for $9.95 plus $3.50 shipping. Not on the website yet, but are available via [email protected]

I think that this is an interesting idea. I'm willing to give those out there that have an interesting design a chance to see their rocket in kit form (at least in a BAH Builders Kit form). So here's the rules: 1) Submit your design to [email protected] with the header Design of...

Hi guys! I'm looking to buy/trade for the following Cox model rocket products for my personal collection and to reproduce as 3D printed models: 1) Second stage of a Cox Nike Zeus (fin section) 2) Honest John 3) Little Joe II 4) Saturn 1B 5) Saturn V New condition, used in good shape, with or...

Mark, Sheree and I have you in our thoughts and prayers.................Alex Boyce

We're working on a new version of the capsule that incorporates a microswitch that activates after the capsule has been ejected from the Redstone booster and will fire a small charge to eject the tower on it's own chute and a set of three small chutes for the capsule. This will eliminate the...

All our own designs............

I mean to say if used in a production environment. If used as a hobby printer it should last a long time. One word of caution, printers that are not designed to be enclosed may not have motherboards, stepper motors, or stepper drivers that are designed or rated for the additional heat. When we...

Here's a 3.90 Jupiter C with RTV (Reentry Test Vehicle) spin tub going out the door..............

The Prusa is a wonderful printer with one drawback, it's not enclosed. That limits the size of ABS prints that can be produced on it. Even if the print stays attached to the bed a large print will experience cracks and layer separation issues. Second most of the Prusa's frame attachment points...

Just 8 total but we could use 8 more............

We currently have four Raise 3D N2's and four Raise N2 Plus printers. The Raise 3D N2's can build parts 12" x 12" and the Raise N2 Plus's can build parts 12" x 24". All are fully enclosed with 300C capable hot ends and are connected via wireless network to the RaiseCloud digital production...

All the parts are ABS except the 54mm motor retainer engine bells which are printed in Polymax PC polycarbonate.
