Gauge I - Märklin-like coupler for LGB cars - Openrailway

myminifactory

I wanted to connect Märklin Gauge 1 cars with LGB cars. So I created a matching coupler that fits on an LGB body mount. The design is streamlined but the coupler can rotate and be lifted like the original. The coupler requires support, but Cura cannot provide suitable ones. Therefore, there are two files available: one with supports and one without. You can choose the one that best suits your needs. I printed everything with ABS (0.1 mm layer height and 50% infill). To assemble the coupler, you will need a spring. The diameter of the spring is crucial; it must be precisely 5.8 mm to function correctly. A length of 13 mm is also essential, though not as critical. Two 2x8 mm screws are necessary to secure the cover in place.
