3D model description
This is a model of Gas Cylinders and Secure Storage designed specifically for 00 gauge (1:76 scale) layouts. The model consists of 8 printable pieces;
• Secure Storage Enclosure
• Storage Enclosure Front
• Group of 6 Small Gas Cylinders
• Group of 8 Small Gas Cylinders
• Group of 5 Large/Medium Gas Cylinders
• Large Gas Cylinder
• Medium Gas Cylinder
• Small Gas Cylinder
Minor adjustments with a needle file may be required for a clean finish, and careful handling is needed to avoid breaking any fine detail elements when removing the s post-printing.
Model dimensions:
Height 22.5mm x Depth 17.6mm x Width 26mm
Assembly & Post-Processing:
No assembly is required. Depending on print precision, minor filing or sanding may be necessary for a clean finish. For enhanced realism, I suggest priming and painting the model. Acrylic paints are a suitable choice for this purpose.
If any of the pieces need cutting use a Dremmel or fine saw and finishing by sanding using a fine sandpaper or a nail file. If you're gluing resin printed parts I would recommend use of superglue.
Compatibility:
Designed to fit seamlessly into 00 gauge layouts. The model can also be scaled for other gauges by following standard scaling guidelines.
File Format:
Available as STL file, compatible with most 3D printers. Model elements have been supplied with and without s.

3D printing settings
I used my ELEGOO Resin 3D Printer, Mars 3 Pro and SUNLU ABS Like Resin for 3D Printer based on the recommended setting for the resin i used.
You'll need to use your setting based on your printer and resin.
