AMX 12t Light Tank
AMX 12t is the older brother of the legendary AMX-13. The design weight of the tank was 12 tons. The AMX-13 chassis was designed as an example of this very light tank. The rear support roller was an idler wheel. However, this design caused problems with the tension of the tank tracks and, in general, there was less reliable. Subsequently, it was been taken into account when designing the AMX-13: A separate chassis was jacked up and the idler was extended, causing the hull to be lengthened.
Cleaning Information
Some part cleanup will be necessary. The 3D printing process uses a waxy substance to support certain part features during the printing process. Although the parts are cleaned by Shapeways, some waxy residue may remain. It can be safely removed with water and a mild aqueous detergent like "Simple Green" using an old, soft toothbrush, Q-tips or pipe cleaners. During the printing process, liquid resin is cured by ultraviolet light. Microscopic bits of resin may remain uncured.
Let your parts sit in direct sunlight for a few hours to fully cure the resin.
Water-based acrylic paints meant for plastics is strongly recommended. Other paints, especially enamels, may not cure on Frosted Detail 3D-printed plastics.
Use dedicated model sprue cutters to remove parts to minimise the risk of damage to parts.
