Description:
CAD modelling work for 3D printing project for making "HO" scale model kit at shapeways
Wants:
Model must look like as the prototype KW T-908 ,hollow cab,driver seat,body frame truck and wheels,detail parts bumper,sleeper,fuel tank, Australian style front bumper ect...All parts must be separated for assembly. Exploded view to fit as model kit requirement for 3d print process.
Don't Wants:
Not to scale, oversized or missdetailed model
File Size Limit:
25 MB +
Software:
- TurboCAD

Is your files are single body STL files with closed contours? What is the wall thickness? Bcause it may become very expensive when shapeways will print the model,they charge per mm cubic material used.Your model look great,but ,as I told you in my last response,the model is not an Australian version as the attachment 113-01272 I submitted in my request.
Link with some basic dimensions: http://www.trucksplanet.com/photo/kenworth_australia/t900-t908/t900-t908_k215.pdf
@Alain Plante, I have given only example. My model dimensions are: Solid- L-275 mm X H-131mm X W-83,6mm. I'll rescale this model. :)
Kenworth T908 50 inch Aero cab (with sleeper) is 4400 cm (approx). Scaled 1/87 is 51 mm (approx)...Rescaled model:
Separate parts:
Cab with Aero: L- 56,10 mm X H- 35,32 mm X W- 23,92 mm;
Frame: L- 76,05 mm X H- 35,32 mm X W- 8,94;
Solid model:
Solid_: L- 76,05 mm X H- 23,13 mm X W- 36,23

Tomas,the 200 mm of lenght is really too big for printing it in 1/87 scale,the model cab with sleeper lenght must be approximately less than L-55mm X H-30mm X W-30mm for the cab and less 100mm long for making a 10 wheels tractor rig frame body. Also,the AUSTRALIAN unit having a wider cab and it is not the standard U.S. cab truck version as the CAD files you've submitted,Your model look close to the Australian version I'm looking for,you've done a very good work,but I'm not sure it was in the right 1/87 scale as I requested.Scale and model version is very important to avoid any mistake in printing production,this model is for the hobby master built production to sell to the 1/87 "HO" scale model builders collectors. The 200mm in lenght you've done is closer to 1/50 scale size for printing. I think to buy the die cast model and come back with the correct dimensions size,I've made a mistake by posting this model design request .More dimension size information needed for helping you in this 3D print design. Keep up the good work!
I had in mind dimensions of the 3D printable model, for example: 200 mm in length and etc. :)
Sorry,only have picture,no drawing plan with dimension available yet
Hello Alain,
Can you tell me the dimensions of the model that you want to print.
Thank you.
Can you tell me the dimensions of the model that you want to print.
Thank you.
ok, will try with available pictures
The only way to get australian style KW T-908 dim spec is by buying the 1/50 scale die cast model at over $350.00
so do u want kenworth only? for that i need kenworth truck front view top view ad side view drawings with atleast out to out dimensions
The
design look like a toy,
the
design look better... but cab is similar as a Western star truck than a Kenworth T908 I'm looking for

the

Yes if the truck kit is made for 3D file are in one of those following uploading formats require for shapeways.
STL, Collada, OBJ, X3D, VRML2.
STL, Collada, OBJ, X3D, VRML2.
i want to make that in SW2012, can I?

Prosthetic Cover Design
We are looking for CAD designs for coverings for prosthetic legs. The products are generally around 450mm tall, with a proportional width similar to human dimensions.
We are specifically looking for interesting aesthetic designs.
We are open to any type of style, but it should be designed to be structurally sound. It will not have to bear weight, but will have to stand up to bumps and knocks. The final print material has not been specified, but you should assume it is an FDM print.
Your design should include some method of attaching the cover to the prosthetic.
The product will be printed in a single colour so if your design has multiple colours it will need to designed in such a way that it's easy to paint the required parts.
We intend to create a range of covers so there may be ongoing work for the successful designer(s)
You should supply us with a CAD file, ready for us to setup in Grasshopper for parametric modelling.

3D Fuel's Company Mascot - Chameleon
3D Fuel is a 3D printer filament manufacturing company. Our mascot is the panther chameleon! We are looking for a cartoon looking chameleon that we can print without supports in a single print. If we must have supports the less supports the better. We don't want people who print this to have to "clean it up" too much. This is something that we would like to bring to trade shows and post on our website with our different color filament. We want this mascot to be an icon! When people see this chameleon they will know what company it belongs to.
