Tarmo3 RC Shock Mod

thingiverse

I redesigned the mounts and enlarged the hole to accommodate standard bolts, using #8-32 x 1-1/2 in Round Headed Machine screws that I found at a local hardware store. Initially, I tried filing and heating the original hole before drilling it, but ultimately discovered Tinkercad and recreated these components to suit my needs. This is my first upload. I printed the spring using a flexible version similar to ninjaflex. Next, I filled the inner part of the body with a Pen spring from a ballpoint pen, giving it just the right amount of bounce back that I wanted. Then, I superglued the top and bottom of the spring to both the bottom mount and the body. I'm having fun modifying the Tarmo3 printer, which can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3546277 and here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3545173. The design is awesome, and I appreciate KrisCubed's work, available here: https://www.thingiverse.com/KrisCubed/about. I upgraded to a metal diff and motor, but unfortunately, the gears kept breaking, so I purchased metal drive gear and remade the drive shafts, which I will post soon. The drive gear can be found at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007KINCE6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Additionally, I used the DriveShaft Link from here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4150315
