Printed truck V2: Frame

thingiverse

Finally got around to finishing the build frame!\nJust missing the driveshaft and gearbox then it's ready for a test.\nThere are 3 different ways to make this build frame:\n1) Print frontframe and rearframe, this requires a printing area of at least 225x76 millimeter.\n2) Print frontframe_20cm and rearframe, one at a time and diagonally across the bed. This will just about fit, with some millimeter to spare if you have a 20x20cm bed to print on, I have tested it myself.\n3) Print Split_Frontframe_20cm_A, Split_Frontframe_20cm_B, Split_Rearframe_A and Split_Rearframe_B then join them with 4mm rods and glue, this way you can print on an even smaller bed if done separately and diagonally.\nHardware needed:\n8x M3x16 for the 4-links.\n8x M4x10(or shorter) for the ninjaflex springs\n2x M4x20 for the build frame lock\n2x 4mm rod, 70-80mm long for the build frame reinforcement.\nYou can check out the assembly video for this over at my YouTube channel:http://www.youtube.com/c/MrCrankyfaceProjects\n2016-04-20 Edit: Added Frontframe_20cm.stl. This will fit diagonally on a 20x20cm bed, I had to chop off a bit on the front. The point of the front extension is to give more support for the cab that'll sit on top but I moved the holes back so it should still have an adequate mounting with the shorter frame.\nSo basically, if you have enough print volume, print front_frame and rear_frame. If you only have 20x20cm, print rear_frame and front_frame_20cm, diagonally on the bed, it will be very tight but should fit.\n2016-04-24 Edit: Changed size of the holes for gearbox so it's easier to screw it on, you don't need to reprint this part if you've already printed it though.\n2016-04-28 Edit: Updated all the build frames and added Split-frames which take even less space to print but requires gluing and steel rods.\nI'll upload more V2 parts as soon as I get them finished, stay tuned!\nYou can find the rear axle here:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1470452\nThe front axle here:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1460196\nAnd the springs here:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1503424\nCheck me out at:\nYouTube: http://www.youtube.com/c/MrCrankyfaceProjects\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mr.crankyface/\n3D Hubs: https://www.3dhubs.com/malmö/hubs/mrcrankyface\nPatreon: http://patreon.com/Mrcrankyface\nPrint Settings:\nPrinter: \n Custom CoreXY\n \n Rafts: \n No\n \n Supports: \n No\n \n Resolution: \n 0.2\n \n Infill: \n 20%\n \n Notes: \n These pieces should be very easy to print, no support and no raft.\nUse some brim if you have warping issues.
