66 Batmobile Derby overlay

thingiverse

This is a test that I made from larry009's classic batmobile. My goal of this is to fit it over a trimmed standard cub scout pinewood derby block and race it. I haven't been able to print it as my printer has been delayed in shipping but I look forward to posting pictures if it works out. UPDATE 2/15/20: I redid the file as the original was not printable. Hopefully this one will work. I split the main body in half and stood it up like the original file and added support. UPDATE 4/14/20: The updated files printed very well. I had to hire it out since my printer is delayed due to COVID-19. There are a several modifications that I had to make to the final print. I did not think about the derby wheels fitting into the existing wheel wells. I had to carve out the wells to fit the derby wheels. A dremel with sanding cylinder worked very well. Just be careful because it moves fast. Other than the wheel wells it assembled nicely and just fit within the size specs. I had to take the derby kit block and cut it down to fit the car parts over it then painted it. I think the final results were very nice. Unfortunately we were unable to race it. Our derby was cancelled due to COVID-19 as it was scheduled for the end of March. I will have to test the speed next year.
