Nissan Cube Model

thingiverse

This is a passion project I've been slowly working on. If you'd like your very own Nissan Cube, Z12 model, feel free to use this one, and have fun customizing it to your own design. Some things of note: RIMS There are two Rim designs. One is what's on my car. The other is what was traditionally sold with the car. Print off two of these and then push it through axel space using the axel connector and some epoxy glue to hold them together. My rims are really finicky and will need the highest resolution to print them. Be patient and careful to remove the supports for the rims. The stock rims print really easily by comparison. Also, at the moment, all rims will look like they have drum breaks. I have yet to make disk brakes for the front. MIRRORS Technically, this part makes the mirrors a bit bigger then they actually are, but it was an easy way to create the same colour as the roof. ROOF I am only using a single filament printer, so I just added a pause a few mms before the end so I could swap out to the colour that's on mine. LICENCE PLATE This is to scale. You can add text, and it might print if it's at the highest resolution. Alternatively, just paint it. TIRES These will be a tight fit over either rim. Just push them on. Best of all, they print really well in black. BODY I do not know where the original file for the body came from, it had a surprisingly high amount of accuracy, including an interior. In this case, I've crudely removed the interior as that's just for fill. If the original design is yours, please tell me so I can have it attributed properly. It seems to be just a file that's bouncing around the internet at this point. FINISHING I've been using cabinet scrappers to remove the largest blemishes. It's worked very well. Vinyl to be added next. I'll also be painting it in specific areas with enamel paint. www.carofwhimsy.com
