Using a 3D printer to make the building 'Shell'

[Yannis]

Jim excellent work!!!! Following with interest!

Of course i ll keep you posted on the prints. So far I am using the fdm printer for walls, and i use support columns on the inside in some cases. I ll also try epoxy (stronger) and have used in the past some types of plastic glue.

Thanks! I should have a picture with windows in place within a week. I just finished printing them and painting them now need to put the glass in place.

Jim, congratulations on a successful print and getting it right the first time.

Thanks Rick;

Frankly I think I got a little lucky since it was just upright. I took the chance since you won't see the shell when complete and any slight imperfection I could live with.Turned out almost perfect for my needs.

Very interested in seeing the FDM walls, I still have not taken the time to get mine dialed in.

Amazing!  You have those dialed in!

Did you clean the 3D substructure first, before applying the double-stick tape?  Any adhesion problems?
