In the footsteps of the Master - Ferret MkV
« on: October 15, 2026, 02:18:44 PM »
Remember this... Claymore Ferret Mk V with Swingfire

Claymore Ferret Build

Being a superb gentleman, he very kindly sent me the .STL files, so I could have a crack. Got them printed off and after... lets say 10 months later... finally off the Shelf-o-doom.

Here is my offering using the files as supplied




I used the Airfix kit decals, which upon closer inspection are bit whiffy in themselves. Notice the flag, this is the flag pre 1707 it has no Cross of St Patrick  ;D
Or do they know something we don't  :o

Indeed! A very fine build  :smiley:

I think we're going to have to hear back from Claymore for details on the ground  :o

It's all fun and games until someone chews through the tree with the eyrie on top.

You are most kind BT.  Great to see how the resin 3D prints came out - very crisp and sharper than my own filament printer.  :smiley:

I too noted the strange Union flag decals with the Airfix kit (they were clearly having an off day) and substituted my own. 

So that’s both northern and southern hemispheres covered - long live the Ferret Mk V!!!  ;) ;D
