This model shows the basic components of a jet engine, the compressor with one stator, the combustion chamber and the turbine with stator.
This is a single shaft engine, a similar one is used also on the Mirage fighter aircraft.
Print the parts with 0.30 resolution and lowest infill to save time, you can print the fans with 50% infill to make them stronger.
Assemble the engine as shown in the pictures, you will need to print two front fans ( one of them is shown in blue color ) , you have to understand that the compressor fans size has to decrease in the direction of the combustion chamber, so slide the compressor fans onto the shaft respecting this order.
In case you will not be able to print the fans I suggest you to rotate and print them starting from the opposite face.
