Default 3D Printing

I was wondering if anyone on here had got into the world of 3D printing yet?

I picked up an Ender 3 printer a couple of years back and it’s been great for making replacement caps, covers, switches etc. It was really useful when I was cleaning up the interior of the MG I had before Terrano, load of clips and other plastic parts were broken or snapped, so instead of trawling the internet looking for spares I just made my own.

It’s also good for keyrings



Anyway, I’m looking for a good .jpg file (or similar) of the Terrano logo but I can’t find one anywhere online. I found this but it’s the old logo



Does anyone have the new logo on file they could send over?

Also, if anyone would like me to try and replicate/replace any parts, just give me a shout. I’m not the best at CAD but if you have a fairly detailed measurement of what you need I can probably knock something up for you.

I wanted to get into it, I still might. But as you said my CAD skills are next to none and I can't see myself learning any time soon. The more I use computers the less I want to!

I know what you mean, and good CAD software can cost BIG £££

I use https://www.tinkercad.com/

I think it's aimed at kids but with a bit of imagination, you can make some quite technical parts.

Here are some pics of the more complicated stuff I made for the MG...
