My latest creation is a Paper Steering Car, built from 13 separate parts: nine 3D printed components, one paper clip and one sturdy piece of paper. I aimed to craft a tiny yet agile vehicle, but discovered that small joints are tricky to print in three dimensions. To overcome this challenge, I replaced them with sturdy paper, which has held up impressively after just a couple of days. Additionally, I incorporated Ackermann steering, a highly effective mechanism worth researching further. The car measures 4cm by 4cm and prints quickly. For more details on its design and construction, visit my website at https://www.mattiatbutera.com or check out my Instagram feed at https://www.instagram.com/mtb_3d/. To ensure a successful build, consider the following recommendations: - Print supports for part five - Double-check that you've printed two right wheels and two left wheels - Use a larger paper clip, dividing it into 17mm segments for the front axles and one 52mm segment for the rear axle - Apply strong glue to secure the front axles and paper - Utilize pliers to bend the paper clip - Cut sturdy paper to precise dimensions: 10mm by 53mm - Make sure to cut notches in the steering assembly - For optimal performance, use rubbery surfaces or carpets for the wheels; if needed, add small rubber bands to enhance traction on smooth surfaces.
