    looking for files for models that i can cut out of styrene and build

    so i have tests to run on my machine and a ton of scrap styrene and i was hoping someone in this community might have some model plans that they could share. i have to test cutting speeds and blades and figure why not make it fun. ive looked online for plans with no luck and hoping someone here is willing to share, i have 3 different sizes of styrene and know that they are used for model building (this is for my personal use and in no way am i looking to use these files to sell model kits or profit in anyway)

    Bzen,

    You neglected to mention what type or kind of models you are looking for, redheads, blondes?

    Welcome to the Zone.

    Your are getting closer, are you referring to something like a IncrediBuilds or a full 3D model. This is not a dentist office, we dont pull teeth here.

    Like this: https://www.amazon.com/IncrediBuilds.../dp/1682980952

    Or like this: https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Hobby-.../dp/B01CFKZJR6

    Bzen,

    Thingiverse has a open source model. May the force be with you and make sure to post an image of your finished project.
