Fifteen more in the printer.
May have to start painting soon.

Look forward to seeing them on the layout - everywhere!!!
Seriously, do they work out cheaper to make yourself than buying? I noticed you often mention the printer is running overnight - has your electricity bill gone up?

There is a huge amount of waste when you print the poles. Can it be reused or used for something else?

No Brian, it's all scrap.
But a single pole, including supports, only uses about 10ml of resin. That's 1.5p in monetary terms. Double poles are still less than 2p.
I'll sell them for £1.50 each

Bloody crook.

Didn’t realise it cost so little.

My printers, to all intents and purposes, have already paid for themselves.
Can't remember the last time I bought a scenic accessory.

Going by the price of accessories today I'm not surprised your printers have paid for themselves.

Correction - 15p per pole
I'll have to put the price up!
