Zeppelin Hindenburg

You will need to print 12 each of the longerons and one of each rib sections. I use no top and no bottom layers and triangle infill to make them look like trusses.

Print 4 each of the rudders and engine sections.

Dry fit the fuselage and then glue together using CA glue. Note that each rib has a number which doesn't really show up to well when printed but helps. The aft longerons have a small dimple on the inside to distinguish them from the fore longerons.

The ribs now have small identifiers on them to help keep them sorted.
