So the sugar cane plants are finished, pictures to follow. Have in the meanwhile been printing a bridge, quite early work but it will be planked on the bridge surface. Quite fun print and will then be glued together supported by two oak beams for support. Bridge was made from several free Thingiverse files.

Several files? So you basically scratchbuilt this bridge virtually before doing it in real life?

I like it; it looks like a million utalitarian bridges all over the globe and it should be useable for a whole host of settings

Thanks more or less but first printed the standing sides, then used those to size the bridge surface. To be honest not that difficult as all files were just printed flat without supports but quite effective for such a low effort building method.

Really useful looking bridge

Great job.Ferret w/ recoiless rifle for South African Airborne (Parabats),during Angola  war.

[Belgian]

Thanks but prefer this Unimog with added recoilless rifle. They even managed to include a mannequin 

But like the look of the Ferret too, looks worth kitbashing.

So the promised pictures of the finished sugar cane plantation. Fully modular to allow more crop diversity and ease of movement. Shown in the picture some SciFi UN Forces in search of rebels. Could use more of these plants but might go for a coconut plantation should time allow it. What do you think of the end result?

[juergen c. olk]

Well done. You finished that quick.

[Grumpy Gnome]

Both the sugar cane and the vehicles look great mate!

[bluewillow]

Loving the sugar cane, do you sell the bridge file?

Cheers
