A snap-pin compatible tower and track connector utilizing Emmett's parametric snap pins has been integrated into the design. A more accurate model of the Snowbird Ski Resort Aerial Tram line has been uploaded. Its significant height necessitates splitting the arm and cabin into separate files. This 3D model is an exact replica of the renowned Snowbird Ski Resort Aerial Tram line. Skiing there today revealed it to be a magnificent feat of engineering, making it a fun challenge for a beginning designer like myself. Multiple drafts later, this is the final product. The Snowbird logo used in this model does not belong to me and no claim to its ownership is made. I included it as it appears on the side of the actual tram and aimed to create a realistic representation. Print Settings: * Printer Brand: MakerBot * Printer: MakerBot Replicator 1 * Rafts: Irrelevant * Supports: Not Required * Resolution: 200 microns * Infill: 15-20% Notes: This print pushes the limits of what FDM printers can produce without supports. Ensure your printer excels at bridging to successfully complete this project. Instructions: This model is an ideal challenge for those who seek to test their printer's capabilities in bridging and structure stability. Unless your printer boasts excellent bridging performance, I recommend exercising caution when deciding to print it. Printing instructions include maintaining a minimum of two shells with 15-20% infill, coupled with the absence of any support features. A careful slicer preview can demonstrate this effectively.
