thingiverse

This is the first part of three parts of the inspired model of a War-Rig. This part includes the Cab or Prime Mover or Tractor Unit of the Rig. The Cab is based on the Yellow Zil Truck Chassis model that I have released earlier. In that release itself I have explained how it is the universal platform on which various payloads can be added for specific function.

You can reuse the nut and bolt securing the Bed in the Yellow Zil Truck Chassis model to secure the payload. But you have to glue the nuts to the payload bed as shown in instuctions.Movements IncludedFront Wheel SteeringEngine Bay Cover Swing OpenNOTE The tolerances to some elements are zero which has been intensionally provided to friction lock the elements while not in movements. You may have to fine tune the tolerance from your end using scaling funtion in slicer to ensure good fit without compromising movements.This also applies for the pins that make rotation possible between elements. Please proceed with printing all the pins after testing printing a pin and testing the fit of a joint. You should be able to find the adequate scaling factor with this.The main body is made hollow to ensure filament savings.Supports should be provided as required.Appreciate the makes uploads.Open for suggestions.
