Vanguard Lower Receiver v1.2-shadowfall
about
Creator: shadowfall
Version: 1.2
Description: The Vanguard series is designed to minimize support material and add ease of printing to the lower design.
Instructions: Set support settings to .40 (40 degrees). If your printer cannot print 40 degree overhangs a higher number may be chosen, this will increase printing time. An 8" build platform is required for this version. The model should be oriented horizontally as seen in the renders.
