That'd be great, here's one of my lower pits I printed last night. The .2mm nozzle really helps with the diamond plate

I always wonder what formed the 'shell' of the pits in the real Falcon? I'm a newbie to the SS Falcon and I am wondering if it is spray paint or deoderant can caps or something similar. Does anyone know?

Maybe shipping tube end caps? ; )

Are they deep enough? Read with your exacting eye and penchant for sub-millimeter detail you should tell us if the diameter is correct

I would've select plastic water pipes and cutting them at the right depth, put a backing and voilà

The tell is the lip -- several of the mandible pits incorporate this lip into the build itself...
