Updated the model to a more pleasing version.
The outer pieces (high velocity explosive) now have the detonators in them.
The outer pieces have voids to fit the low velocity explosive.
There is an inner shell (tamper).
There is a core of fissile material.
The cores come as hemispheres, you print two of each and glue them together.
Added obj files as a custom request from one of the 3D Printing FB group members.
Request from one of the 3D Printing FB group members. Looks like something very explodey nucleary and was a fun challenge to make. Differed a bit from other tutorials on Youtube as I chose to patch the missing pentagons, and loft to a point to create the solid body - seems faster and more precise to me to do it this way.
Still in progress, but whether or not I'll get back to it is up in the air at the mo - still missing the detonators and the geometry for the explosive lensing patterns.
