Meccano F1 wheel (rim and tyre)

thingiverse

These are a collection of rims and tires for the Meccano F1 style cars. My kid lost one of the wheels, and after searching for a while for a replacement, finally couldn't avoid having to replicate it myself in FreeCAD :) There are several models: the whole wheel (rim and tyre fused), a close replica of the rim and tire of the original, which had 90 degrees angles where the rim holds the tyre in place, which can be problematic to print without supports (specially for the tyre, which should be printed with some flexible filament, like ninjaflex!). Finally I decided to create two more versions 71 degrees and 56 degrees from vertical), with slanted rims so printing FDM should't be a problem. I've added two different styles of tyres, with and without grooves (non-slanted though, maybe some ugliness can come out of your FDM printer).
