$6.91Diesel-01-C locomotive - LEGO/ERS compatibile, FDM 3D printable

myminifactory

This is an upgraded version of my earlier launched "Diesel-01" locomotive. It now features a state-of-the-art ("ERS") coupling system - optimized for the most challenging track curvatures on LEGO and ERS track systems. The wheels have been redesigned to offer quicker assembly (without any external components needed) and enhanced stability. Thanks to these modifications, this model is now a complete set of parts - even wheel axles are 3D printed (1.75mm filament pieces are used for hinges' axles). To learn more about the assembly process, please refer to this PDF instruction: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ihm5edvshrt8as3/DIESEL-01-C_manual-v2.pdf?dl=0 This locomotive is compatible with LEGO tracks (adequate distance between gauge lines) and its native tracks standard: "Euroreprap Railroad System" (a free inter-connector track model is available). No support is required during printing, and printers with small bed sizes will do just fine (for bed areas below 15x15 cm please contact me first to obtain suitable files set on order). No special tools are needed during assembly (I use a metal nail file for finishing places where excessive material remains). The model's dimensions after assembly are: 370x134x72 mm (14.57x5.28x2.83 in). If you'd like to experiment with this model on other track scales, the factors to match them are: x0.847 for 32 mm track (scale "0") x1.19 for 45 mm track (scale "G"). Please note that after scaling, the minimal bed size will be 18x18 cm (scaling factors may slightly differ depending on each printer's accuracy level). This locomotive is a bit too long in my opinion, which is why I recommend its shorter variant for use with "Euroreprap Railroad System".
