Bolo Tank

thingiverse

This is a little stylised tank I modeled years ago in homage to the old hectic multiplayer game Bolo. I have just updated the design to make it buildable with a 3d printer, easy assembly with clips, and to have functioning wheels and tracks, rotating turret, and adjustable gun. The base is 300mm wide at its widest point. I have designed it to be scalable from anywhere between 100% to 50% and every part should still be printable with reasonable clearances between the parts. If you aren't confident if you will be able to print this model, I suggest first trying a one-off test print of the tread pin, tread piece, and gun clip pieces to see how well they come out. Everything else is bigger so should be no problem. I welcome all feedback and suggestions for improvements to the design. The BOM comprises 116 pieces, as follows: Tank Main Body x 1 Turret x 1 Gun x 1 Gun Clip x 1 Tank Wheel x 8 Tread Piece x 52 Tread Pin x 52 Enjoy :)
