Minuteman III Missile Model

This is a 3D Model of the Minuteman III Missile currently used by the US Air Force. The model is designed to snap together and come apart to show missile operations. Printing the missile to fit tightly together requires quite a bit of tuning as all printers are a little different and settings that work on one my not work on another. The model is designed to be printed using a 0.4 mm nozzle with 0.4 mm extrusion width.

The stage body pieces have a funnel shape on one end, this is printed against the build surface and the top (or bottom in the case of the 3rd stage) fit in like a cork in a bottle - and are glued in place - place the glue on the inside edge towards the top of the funnel. Keep the settings the same for all stage bodies, as it will affect how the interstages fit.

The interstage piece stl files are solid so they are more adjustable. Print them with 0% infill and no top or bottom with 2 layer walls. Adjust the extrusion width and extrusion multiplier to make them fit p
