Hi MiniPansar
I try and will post my first project here as a test. Its a 1/6 3D printed BMW R75 from MINIALAND57 available on Cults3d.
Printing in PLA + material. A friend and fellow builder in Oz made the rubber tires for me.
Its not 100% accurate but should be fun to see in RC. I had to modify a couple of the parts- the bearing hole in the wheels was too large for the bearing specified. If you want the STL files for this let me know.
Enjoy, all for now - Bob

Very nice looking!
The tires are fantastic and I like the idea with the spokes.

Thanks I was very pleased with how the rubber tires came out. Even printing them in PLA and painting looked pretty good. The spokes are pretty clever - can't take credit for the design. I did have to redo the bearing hole and I made the spokes a little thicker. Thanks for looking.

How cool is this!!
I use PLA+ in 99.9% of all my printing and it works great. I got a whole 1/6 tank in PLA+ and it works OK in Swedish climate.

Hi Bob, great build!
Some weeks ago I bought the files too.
I am very interested in the updated parts, so if you want to share them, please?
Aboput the tyres, it seems to me that they are made in a mold, right? not printed with TPU.

I found the motor on ebay. I used the Comodrill motor specified in PDF, but they are from UK, so a bit hard to find. If you absolutely cannot find one I think I buy several spares. The tires someone made for me in rubber, with a multipiece mold using my CAD file. But I print some in PLA and they work great as well.
Thanks all,
Bob
