Front tire and hub for Ford 8000 die cast toy tractor

thingiverse

I have been meaning to get around to designing/printing the inner front hub missing from an old die-cast Ford model 8000 toy tractor from my distant childhood. Finally got around to it. I'm very happy about how it turned out (perfect!) and the fit is right on. I decided to model the outer hub as well, and the tire itself. Files included are the inner hub, outer hub, and the tire. As always, this is a work in progress; there is infinite room for improvement. **Updated:** * Rounded the sharp edges * Updated the solid tire with the inset it needs to properly fit the hubs. * Removed the hollow tire; the hole through center needs to be solid through and the tire can be printed with low infill to save material and make it more flexible, if desired. **Future improvements:** * Make a version of the hub(s) with mounts for a bearing
