Many tank barrels are smoothbore because rounds are often fin stabilized. The rate of twist is a detail that should be correct or certain people (weapons nerds) will notice.
Great stuff, this is one of those things where I have no idea how to accomplish until I see you click on the screw modifier at which point it seems super obvious lol
Isn't that often the way with these things? Sometimes it just comes to you in a sort of epiphany, other times you see something online. Its all part of the learning process 😁👍🏻
Abrams tank uses smooth bore because of the heat rounds losing the velocity needed for maximum penetration and all the rounds have fins that give the rounds the same stability as a rifled bore tank.
The Challenger 2 is the only modern MBT left with a rifled barrel because we wanted it for the HESH rounds. It's getting ditched for the challenger 3 and we're not going to be using HESH rounds anymore, because rifling lowers the performance of the APFSDS ammo.
Excellent display of different modelling techniques, thank you! My only concern is whether after all these boolean operations on the mesh, it prints out correctly.
Great tutorial! I don't really make use of the screw modifier, but I think I should start employing it more in my modelling! I am thinking of getting myself a high resolution 3d printer. Which one do you recommend?
Thanks so much. So I used an Anycubit Mono X and really like it. If you want REALLY high resolution I hear a lot of people recommending the Phrozen 8k mini and there's a new version of that out now. But I can't say I've used them.

Good info. 👍🏻 Thanks so much 😁
The biritsh stuck with rifled to be able to fire HESH tho.
something to save later for reference! Thanks a lot for your tutorials!~
No problem at all and hope it will be handy for future projects!
Excellent run through of the tools!
Cheers Rich. As always thanks for watching and commenting 👌

I am also going to save this as a reference for a future project. 😊 good tut as usual.
Cheers and I think it should help with a lot of different things so it seemed a good topic.

Great info. Thanks man 👌👍🏻
Great tutorial!
Cheers
Next episode: “How to model a pipe bomb and 3d print it”
😅 Sounds like how to get banned. Or infamous. So it's an all or nothing play for the future of the channel 🤣
Thinking outside the box! Aw yiss!! 😂

👍🏻👌 Thanks man 😁
Hey dude! Congrats on the informative content. I'm from Brazil and your channel is pure gold! Keep it up!
Thanks so much man. Really appreciate it and glad you're finding it helpful 😁😁

👍🏻 Thanks. I actually have it printed and it's worked out great.
Nice way of doing it. I'm betting the rifling isn't the same turns-per-inch the entire length of the barrel, either.
That's interesting as an idea. I think a changing turns per inch would be a bit tougher but not possible.
Some weapons do, it's called a variable twist rate, it isn't very common but it does exist
Comments for the algorithm 👍 Great Video
Cheer Mike 😁
