LEMAX Train - Propane Tanker

thingiverse

This is a Propane Tanker for my LEMAX Train. This train is part of a set of Christmas Village accessories available in Canada at <a href="https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/search-results.html?q=lemax">Canadian Tire</a>. This collection is sold in the holidays season only so the link may not work. See my complete <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/MichelJ/collections/lemax">LEMAX collection</a>. <b>Wheel dollies & hitch</b> You need to print 1 hitch, 2 dollies and 8 wheels. The shafts are made with 1¼" finishing nails. The dollies's holes must be re-drilled with a 5/64" bit and the wheels with a #51 (0.067"). That's my north american setup. Take what you have on hand! I flush cut the nail and GENTLY tap it to kind of rivetting it. A small dot of glue can be added at the exterior of the wheel. I make sure the nail heads are all on the same (exterior) side for a better look. The dollies and hitch are held in place with M2x4 screws. Some washers a required. In CURA set the "Top/Bottom" and "Bottom Pattern Initial Layer" to "Concentric" when printing the wheels. <b>Letters</b> The letters must be printed face down. They have a 0.15mm clearance for a better fitting. Again, in CURA set the "Top/Bottom" and "Bottom Pattern Initial Layer" to "Concentric" when printing them. EDIT: The hitch was missing.
