container reach stacker HO scale 1:87

The model of a reach stacker in HO scale (1:87), based on a Konecranes SMV 3545 This model was designed with FDM printing in mind but you might have better results with an SLA printer. If printed on an FDM printer, you will need a 0.25mm nozzle (or finer) and layer heights of 0.05mm. I modeled all of the joints and I then exported different positions of the moving parts. You will have to choose a position for the boom and to either print the grabber for 20ft or 40ft containers (I used the measurements from Marklin HO scale containers and the pegs on all 4 corners should line up with those ones). The model uses 2x M2 x 16 bolts to attach the front wheels to the body and 2x M4 x 10 bolts for the rear wheels. The rest of the model needs to be glued on, some parts have alignment blocks (either on the parts themselves or printed separately) to ensure proper alignment.
