The Saturn V model is a highly detailed 1:200 scale reproduction of the historic NASA vehicle that flew for the Apollo program for the first flight in 1967 for 13 flights. The model consists of several pieces printed separately, which are easy to print and assemble.
The finished model dimensions are approximately 56cm high and 5cm wide for the Saturn V.
Printing
There are 60 pieces to print for the Saturn V.
The total printing time for the entire model is approximately 15 hours.
Choosing your Spacecraft configuration
There are multiple configuration options available for this model, depending on your printing and assembly preferences.
We offer two assembly configurations:
The choice is made in the “SM+CM” print profile.
Choise 1 – Spacecraft_Empty_White : Full tower on the top of the capsule (Simple settings)
Choise 2 – Spacecraft_Empty_White : Empty tower on the top of the capsule (Complex settings)
Tips
Settings
For infill, 10% is sufficient for a decorative object, and you can also use PrusaSlicer’s “Lightning” infill settings.
For some parts, support will be necessary.
Printing
For a better final result, I recommend printing the Jonction_Block last so that you can adjust their size according to your print and have a better fit during assembly.
If some parts are loose or don’t fit, you can change the scale by +/- 1% in the slicer to get a better fit.
The parts are positioned in the optimal direction for printing.
For the base, it is recommended to print with 4 perimeters to avoid visible infill.
Post Printing
You may need to sand the junction areas between the parts for a smoother finish.
Additionally, I recommend using glue for better strength and durability.
Use the assembly guide for assembly and printing advice.
