Lionel O gauge flat car digital picture frame holder

thingiverse

I was scanning through ebay and noticed that Lionel made a digital rolling billboard.. And they are quite expensive. So I decided to make one instead. This is designed to bolt right to the top of a regular Lionel flat car with stake sides. There are two ways it can be attached. First you can use 2.6mm self taping screws. These will damage the flat car. Second 2mm x 15 screws with nuts. This is what I used and is reversable with no damage. When installing the holder you will need to put some tape in the middle section of the car. I wanted to print this with no supports. If you want you can print a 1mm "shim" but a couple strips of electrical tape do the trick perfectly. The holder is designed to fit an Insignia NS-DPF3G. Sadly these too are discontinued. BUT they are on ebay for dirt cheap used, and there are still some new on Amazon. This was created in Vectary, and printed with Simplify 3D at high setting. Feel free to leave a tip :D
