HO 3D Printed Elf
#1

I've been working on a new 3D printed P34 Elf 6-wheeler. Unlike the one made by Aurora back in the day, this one is much smaller and as proportionately accurate as possible down to the scale 10" front wheels. It uses a custom frame, not a full chassis, to clamp the motor into the body. Axles and other running gear are attached to the frame. Initial test prints are being sent out to a friend for track testing. If all goes well, I'll be putting these into very limited production. The test body in the pictures is of the earliest version of the car. I may make slightly later versions as well which use a different front wing shape. As well as a different or no airbox. I just slapped a quick coat of paint on the translucent resin body without any prep work to help show the shape of the car. But also to help me better see areas that need tweaking.
