Hello folks,

I just thought I'd show off my latest Met box build.
It's 3D printed on a resin DLP printed at 25 microns per layer - or 1/40th of a millimetre.

I'm pretty amazed how much detail is present!

That looks great, and as you say, the detail is amazing.

Just so I can get my head round it, how high is the model? I think that's a Euro coin but I've never had one so I don't have anything to judge the size with.

I want notes, lists and answers by the time I finish this here Juicy-a-Box! WARNING: I am Thirst-ay! And it is Fruit Punch! And it is Delicious!"

Are you going to hire the Borrowers to paint it for you?

Great little build!

Looks even better when compared to the smallest commercially available Police Box models; Langley Miniatures N and OO scale versions, and the truly horrible Hornby Railways OO scale box.

I must be a bit strange... I like all of them!

I agree, Russell.  I like the fact that all the different models over the years are of varying degrees of "Police-Box-Accuracy".  After all, it's the same with the BBC props.

With you on the two Langley boxes. But the Hornby one is way below their usual standard of accuracy for other bits of street furniture.
