RC tire holder

thingiverse

8/11/17: Lengthened stems 4mm, added lids with holes for pins. After exploring available tire holders, I designed my own. This one prints flat, secures tires, is lightweight, and features a disk as a lid to record tire information. Three stem versions are available: half-height for two tires, full-height with middle holes (though these are weak points that can break easily), and a version with top-only holes. Two disk options exist: plain and engraved with tire positions - bottom tire is Rear Right, etc. Assembly involves inserting the base into the stem's bottom hole. Depending on the printer, 2mm drill holes in the stem may be required. Tires are then inserted, followed by the lid, which features one hole above and one below. The pin is placed through both holes, securing it with a rotational motion. If necessary, lay the holder flat to insert the pin only into the top hole. Each tire holder requires printing one base, one stem (of three options), one lid (of two options), and one pin. Do not print assembled.stl, as this file simply showcases part alignment. Happy organizing!
