Knuckle coupler 1/32
cults3d
Since a long time I had in mind to design a 1/32 scale knuckle coupler to replace the oversized LGB coupler on my US rail cars. After a few inconclusive tries I finally found an easy to print and functional design. The automatic coupling is working as expected and it doesn't unhook even in tight curves. It also interfaces correctly with a 820 Kadee coupler (and probably with other brands too). The springs are printed so no need for small, pricey and hard to find steel springs. It's still a work in progress as I have to design different gearboxes to fit my various cars. I've already made 4 : - 05-06 : all purpose. - 07-08 : for my US Box Car (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/us-vintage-boxcar-1-32-openrailway) - 08-09 : for my US Bobber Caboose (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1363887) - 09 & 10 : box and cover for the US 8-axle Flat Car (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/us-8-axle-heavy-duty-flat-car-1-32-gauge-i-openrailway). Also fits the US 60' Boxcar (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/us-50-feet-boxcar-scale-1-32-openrailway).
