Turtle Shell Racer High Power Edition

myminifactory

I think we can all agree that life would become much more exciting if I launched a turtle shell at you every once in a while! But it's no fun if I'm the only one with a shell to launch, so let's make Turtle Shells for Everybody!!! All you have to do is print them out and assemble them. The Turtle Shell Racer is as fully 3D printable as I can make it using my Makerbot Cupcake CNC and its MK5 Extruder. The PDF file contains full assembly instructions and a parts list, so be prepared to spend some time on this very ambitious project! To see the shells in action, check out the videos at CCCKC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAd3e_UTW4c and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wA-wY-Q_onU. UPDATE Sept 26th: I've uploaded the modifications I made to the shells for the NYC Maker Faire! The Wheely Bar.stl is a new rear axle bracket that lets you do awesome wheelys, while the New Stearing Link.stl replaces the old steering linkage and gives you a better connection between the servo and the steering.
