'Bluebird' 3D printed

The Bluebird of Chelsea

I will be making this model from plans/digital files for 3D printing.

As much as possible it will be 3D printed using PLA filament.
The printer I will be using is a basic level Ender 3

Some info of the Bluebird

The Bluebird of Chelsea is a historic motor yacht built for land and water speed record holder Sir Malcolm Campbell. Originally named simply Bluebird, she is famous for participating in the 1940 Dunkirk evacuation.

now could it be six degrees of separation

My early years I was spent was in a very small Hertfordshire village of Well End so small just four streets and about 50 inhabitants, one of the villages famous sons was Eric Garside a weekend sailor who answered the Admiralty's for Dunkirk Little Ships. For a short time in the years after the war My mother worked on the Garside estate.

Enjoy the photographic record as the Bluebird takes shape Col.
