Description

1/28 Scale Westeel 18 Foot 5000 Bushel Grain Bin

This is a scale model of a Westeel grain bin with an aeration fan. It is very realistic and a great print to show off to others or an addition to a model farm. It is printed in 5 pieces, the hopper, the bin itself, the roof, the lid, and the aeration fan. All the parts stack easily on top of each other, and the fan fits snugly into the spot for it on the hopper. Happy printing!

Edit

-Thanks to @user_2731531044, the issue regarding the first layer printing in the air has been solved. Simply click on the lay on face feature in Bambu Studio, click on the very bottom one, then it should be good. Check to make sure once sliced that it worked.

 

Edit 2

-With several people still having issues, I have uploaded another print profile that should fix the bottom layer on the bin print. Please use this one first or if you are having trouble with the other one. Thanks for your patience!

 

Edit 3

-With several people experiencing issues with the supports on the bin hopper itself, I have uploaded a new print profile with reinforced supports. Please try this if you are having issues. Note that this profile is just the hopper and not the whole bin, so you will have to do 2 prints.
