Sliding Door Prop

thingiverse

dd a touch of realism by adding a sliding door to your diorama or gaming table.Each object is modelled 1-in-10 scale. You will need to rescale the model to suit your application. I printed mine at 130% (for about 1-in-8 scale).Print with the objects parallel with the print bed. For filament printers, use at least 20% infill, a brim and supports where required.After printing:Paint the components.Find four bearings and shafts that will fit into the pelmet. You may print out the supplied bearing and shaft models and use these.Drill holes in the top of the door for the bearing shafts. Cut the shafts to a suitable length, insert into the drilled holes and press the bearings onto the shafts. Use retaining compound (i.e. Loctite, Superglue). I did not model the holes, as the position and size will be determined by the bearings and shafts that you select.Insert the door assembly into the main channel and check for smooth rolling.Attach the end piece. I used double-sided tape.Attach the pelmet to the wall. I initially used double-sided tape, however, I ended using epoxy resin.
