Description

Update 2/2/24

Added Extra profile containing optional underwater parts and a stand - which can be bolted on the bottom with 3xM4 x 15mm Cap head screws.

 

 

 

Update 13/2/24

Updated the underwater print profile to move the section breaks so that they line  up with the main waterline model.

Also doubled up  the tiny azipod motor parts - as it doesn't add much to print time and will then give some spares in case of breakages or printing issues.

 

Also slightly improved the adaptive layer height settings.

 

 

Update 4/1/24.

I have added the underwater hull part of this ship to my 1:1000 scale version here

https://makerworld.com/en/models/15006#profileId-14776

 

If there is any interest in a version scaled for this 1:500 version please let me know via the comments I will create one.

 

 

 

Scaled at 1:500 and mutli coloured - this model is multi plate, quite large and requires a lot of time to print.

It is recommened that people try one of the 1:1000 or 1:1250 version first - which print without supports on a single plate.

 

Updated 31/12/23

New version of the Dome on deck18 added as a 2nd + 3rd plate on the same print profile as was uploaded on 21/12

 

Updated 21/12/23

Alternative version of deck 8 included in seperate profile - to avoid issues with lighting channel showing through very thin deck layer.

 

Updated 9/10/23:

Corrected a problem with a duplicate part from deck 15 being present and one part from deck 14 being missing.

See Plate 14.

 

Updated 30/9/23:

Corrected a problem with the port side of the hull section not slicing correctly.

 

Also note that since releasing these complex multi part 1:500 ship models I have found that the BL printers are capable of printing these models quite well at a 1:1000 scale on a single plate. Seperate entries in Makerworld have been created for the 1:1000 versions.

 

 

Update: 8/9/23:

A new version of the model has just been updated that addresses points 2,3,4 & 5 below.

 

 

Update: 18/8/23

Following feedback from the 2 successful end user prints of this model I am planning to make the following updates:

  1. Enhance the build instructions - I have already made some updates to bring these instructions in line with the slightly more detailed ones on printables.
  2. Thicken up some of the more fragile top decks - that are quite difficult to remove from anything other than a cooled down textured sheet
  3. Change the settings in the build files to increase the use of brims - to avoid corner lift off
  4. Include built in part numbering on the main deck parts.
  5. Provide a version of the centre hull section with slightly wider tollerances - to make it easier to push parts together
  6. Provide simpler smaller scale versions (1:1000) of this ship for single plate, single colour and multi colour printing.

 

Third ship in a series of Seven 1:500 scale Models of P&O Cruise Ships - Iona - for personal use only.

 

Iona is the largest P&O Cruise Ship currently in service.

 

Designed for multi colour printing on a Bambu Lab X1C or P1P with 8 Colours (2 x AMS).

 

STL files not available individually as there are too many.

Designed using Fusion 360.

Model is approximately 3 build plates long - so needs to be printed in separate sections which are slotted together at deck level, then each deck is bolted together using M4 Cap Head Screws.

Printing will take well over 60 hrs in total - in separate plates which average about 2 hrs printing time each - but some of the more complicated plates take in excess of 13 hours to print.

 

For reference here are the filament colours I have been using in order of quantity - with a best guess at Bambu Lab equivalents

eSUN PLA+ Filament 1.75mm, PLA Plus 3D Printer Filament Cold White
eSUN PLA+ Silver
SunLU PLA+ Blue
SunLU PLA Red
1kg 1.75mm PLA 3D printer filament Printer - With coil (Gold Color)
SUNLU 3D Printer Filament PLA+ Plus Grass Green
Aldi Balco Blue 1kg
SunLU PLA Yellow
Bambu Lab Orange
ICE Filaments ICEFIL1PLA104 PLA filament, 1.75mm, 0.75 kg, Barbaric Brown
eSUN PLA BLACK
 

With the quantity of white being about 10x the rest.

My best guess at equivalent Bambu Lab Filaments to these would be:

Bambu Lab PLA Basic Jade White
Bambu Lab PLA Silk Silver
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Blue
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Red
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Bronze
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Green
Bambu Lab PLA Matt Ice Blue
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Yellow
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Orange
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Brown
Bambu Lab PLA Basic Black

 

Around 22 M4x16 and 4 M4 x 10
 

 

Build instructions. (updated 18/8/23)

 

  1. Print plates in the order presented. Writing deck numbers onto printed parts can help with organisation. **
  2. Recommend textured plate is used for most prints - especially those with only 1 layer in some parts - such as deck 19 Bow. Cool plate however useful for very long thicker prints - such as Hull if being able to pause prints overnight is a requirement. **
  3. For the thicker hull sections the dovetail joints are quite tight so a small amount of trimming of the dovetails may be required to get the pieces to slot together.
  4. On the stern section of the hull I have included some slight overlaps to stop corners from being round that will need to be trimmed off. **
  5. It is recommended that a small hammer is used to gently tap the dovetail joints together - going slowly from side to side - until the sections are flat.
  6. Completed decks can then be bolted together using the holes with slots for screw tops.
  7. Lifeboats need to be slotted into deck 7 tabs - it may be necessary to slightly widen the slots in the lifeboats with a screwdriver.
  8. The canopy on deck 19 also slots into some fairly tight holes - so again these might need to be prized open slightly with a small screwdriver

 

 

Model has only been printed once so far, and was re-sliced for this upload.

Further details of the design and built process are available on the Bambu Labs forum AMS section.

Details of this model will also be posted on

  1. The Bambu Lab Official Facebook Group
  2. The P&O Facebook Group
  3. The Ship Models Facebook Group

 

This is a personal project. I have no connection to P&O Cruises or Carnival Corporation other than being a customer.

This version is released under a CC Non Commercial No Derivatives license due the P&O Cruises branding.

Print at 0.2mm layer height on 0.4mm Nozzle, support required only for plate 19
It's amazing! I printed this magnificent ship and used two P1S for a week at the same time. I have a few tips: 1. Would you like to write a number on each part? It would be nice to have a simple assembling guide. (It took a long time to figure out where each part was) 2. The 21and 22 plates could e strengthened a little bit,it's a little too fragile right now. They also need start spport (plate21 and plate 22) 3. There are some warped edges in some places（picture4), may be improved by broadening the brim. It also maybe maybe put some Bambu glue on my PLA Plate. Thank you for your design and sharing, it is really awesome!

Thanks for the feedback. Have beefed up the instructions a little bit on the Printables.com version - but accept the points you have made - particularly in relation to numbering parts etc - plus need to address brims etc. Also I agree that some of the decks are a little too thin - they seem to come off ok on the textured plate - but can be quite tricky on plates like the cool plate - so will thicken them up a bit.

I have just uploaded a reworked version of the Iona model - which hopefully address most of the points you raised. I will probably test print some of the plates at some point, however I am currently focussing on a version of the ship that will just about squeeze onto a single build plate - and I think that a smaller size will be more practical for other people to print.

I presume you are talking about the line on the right hand side coming through the deck. If so sorry about that I think must have made the channel below for optional lighting wiring a bit a thick for reliable printing of the brown layer above. Will create a new version with slightly thicker brown layer if that is the problem. If you are in a hurry the proceed with the print then the older version of Deck 8 without the lighting channel is in the 'Iona Deck8.3mf' file here - https://www.printables.com/model/518421-po-cruise-ship-iona/files.

Thanks for pointing out the issue - New version of deck 8M added with the white of the lighting channel thicker - to avoid the risk of the deck not printing properly. So separate print profile.

Crazy amount of details! I've finished the 1:1000 one and about to start the larger one. I still need to wait till my second AMS arrives. Also, may I know the length of the M4 Cap Head Screws used to connect the deck? Thanks for the hardwork!

I just finished the Main deck. Upon checking the slicing i found a potential duplicated part on Deck 7-MF2. Is the part in picture one duplicates with the one on the main deck (Picture 2)?

Just finished below the waterline part and its just amazing how it looks. i wish the section lines matched with the hull like shown on the last picture, but besides that is perfect.

Just finished printing. The result is fantastic! This is one of the most neatly designed models I have ever printed since I bought my first 3d printer back in 2017. The total printing time was around 90 hours (I had to reprint some decos due to Imperfections). I printed most parts without support on a textured plate. Overall I didn't experience any bed adhesion issues. I do have a few suggestions and printing tips: 1. Slot the lifeboat onto Deck 7 before proceeding to Deck 8. The connectors are fragile so having the lifeboat on before assembling the upper deck should help. 2. Deck 19 only has one bottom layer, which makes it super fragile and very difficult to remove from the plate. In my case, I have to make modifications to thicken the bottom layer a bit to make it actually usable. 3. Before assembling decks 17 and 18, wait til all of the roof decos are finished. Otherwise, you will not be able to assemble the Funnel because the screw hole is underneath the deck. Once again, thanks for your hard work. Looking forward to seeing your designs in the future!

Thanks for the feedback and print looks really good. Re the deck 19 - I think I had better address that and thicken up the deck a bit more. On the black Textured build plate they release ok - but I know the gold textured one or the cool plate hold things like those decks a bit too well. Will also update the instructions to reflect the good points you have made.

There is something wrong with the first plate, after slicing there is a big gap in the front of the ship.

Thanks for pointing out the problem - didn't notice it when I checked as it was hidden at the back. New version uploaded that corrects the issue. PS/ For reference it was caused by having that part of the hull included twice in the STLs - which for some strange reason means the slicer shows it ok in the prepare section but ignores it when it does the slicing.

Thanks - Yes - am planning on doing one of the Oasis class ships. Not sure though on what RCLs stance will be on allowing models to be published. CCL/P&O Cruises were pretty accommodating - but for example TUI so far have completely ignored my request for permission to publish models of their ships.

Great work, any chance you do an Aida? E.g. Cosma as its basicly the same class...?

Replying to @tombeckmann78 :
Interestingly we were docked next to this one a few weeks ago - so I did study it fairly carefully. I do like the colour scheme and the subtle improvements I think it has over Iona and Arvia - so think it could be interesting to do - the main thing holding me back on Aida is the language barrier - as I usually post the models on the cruise line Facebook.

it would be awesome if you complete the underwater part for the 1:1500 version, i would definitely print it out.

Looks cool, but doesn't feel weird to not have the keel? Is it just for display purposes because of the missing section?

Thanks - Yes this version was designed for display only. There aren't a lot of photo's around of the underside - so knowing what it looks like is a bit tricky. I do plan at some point to model the underside of Iona's sister ship Arvia (for which there are photos/videos available from the ship yard) - so it will be possible to bolt that section onto the bottom of this Iona model too as I would imagine it is probably more or less identical.

Initial attempt at modelling the below water parts if you are interested. Not sure if I have got the proportions quite correct as photos with scale are hard to come by. Will probably release this as a variation of the 1:1000 single plate version once I done a few test prints.

Looks great already. You could probably just introduce it as an entirely separate part, printed upside down.
