Model of Motorcar No. 9

thingiverse

This car is a model of Norman Bel Geddes' motorcar No. 9 made by a friend. It was designed after the 1932 art deco teardrop inspired car conceived by Norman Bel Geddes, an industrial engineer renowned for his Art-Deco designs, one of which was the GM Futurama pavilion in 1939. You can view an original image of the car within the files. The plans used to design this model were found online; please inform me if there are any copyright issues. Regarding printing, you will need to scale it approximately seventy times. In my case, I printed it with a thirty percent infill at 0.2mm layer thickness, utilizing raft and support, which took about thirteen hours. I then sanded the model and applied filler and primer to achieve a smooth surface. The windows were painted black, and masking tape was used to apply several layers of metallic silver paint. The V2 version for the wheels should work with Cura, but you will need to find a way to scale it to match the size of your car.
