The next parts to print are the three canopies to hang over the outer doorways and the two fuel pumps.

For these I am going to reduce the layer height down to 0.15mm which should give a better finish on the curved parts.

First up are the canopies.

Looking at them i feel it is best to have the three squares facing downwards with supports.

As before, I make the required number of copies and rotate them to all face the same direction. I then create a rectangular support to house all three.

And all done.

Secondly, I will be adding the supports to the pumps.

Each pump will require supports at the front and back for the pump controls/power supply box and the void under the top of the pump.

Combining all the elements gives me this to print.

I have also decided to change to a raft, rather then a brim for this print due to the smaller parts, which may come loose.
