Millenium Falcon 1 - Star Wars - Meccano Expansion Parts

thingiverse

I was interested in the Milenium Falcon from Star Wars since I was a kid. ... I found these Plans somewhere, notes, closet floor ... ;) Now I thought that I would Design and Build one. So I did this using my Meccano style Parts. Have Fun ! To Build: Use the SS_FRISBEEcircleWALLedge_30d_15d_5x2a1_58x25x13_p112b WALL EDGE with three Tabs Part to link bases of two 100mm TRIANGLE Parts , 8 times => 8 Form Structures. Link two more TRIANGLEs to the WALL EDGE with 2-Tab Parts , twice => 2 Form Structures ; these are for the ends of the SemiCircles formed. Six of these Structures are linked together to form a semicircle for the 12-oclock portion of the Disk. Other four Triangle Structures form the 6-oclock SemiCircle portion of the Disk. These SemiCircles are then linked at the center of the Circle shape (via Triangles Top and Bottom Points) with the two CIRCLE Parts. The two CIRCLE Parts are then linked together, through the center, via the thin 40mx8mm TUBE Part. Link All the Tunnels together with the STRIP Parts with 2 Holes, also adding the TUNNEL-CAP pieces appropriately on the outer ends of the Tubes. Then screw these Tube Sections onto the Triangles (of the Disk / SemiCircle Structures), with the 8-Hole STRIPS, to the Bottom of the adjacent Triangles of the Disc. This should make a Full Disc now. Sandwich TWO more 100mm TRIANGLES together sepparated by the 10-Hole-x2-Hole STRIPs linkedby the 2-and-2-Hole 90-DEGREE-ANGLE Parts. Then link this Triangle Section to one front side of the Disc with two of the 4-Hole-x-4-Hole 50mm TRIANGLE Parts. Use an extra WALL EDGE with 2-Tab Part as a Wall for the 45degree Triangle. Repeat this process for the other Front Side of the Disc. Note: Suggest using #6x1/2in Bolts or Gluegun to assemble. Todo: Legs and Turrets - in the Future. Parts: 20x - TRIANGLES 18x - WALL EDGE with 3 Tabs 4x - WALL EDGE with 2 Tabs 4x - 40mmx40mmx40mm TUBE 1x - 20mmx40mmx40mm TUBE 1x - 45degree CUT 40mmx40mmx40mm TUBE 1x - 22degree CUT 20mmx40mmx40mm TUBE 2x - FLAT END TUBE CAP 40mm 1x - END TUBE CAP 40mm with WINDOWS 1x - 40mmx8mm THIN LINKING TUBE 2x - 40mmx40mm CIRCLE PLATE 2x - 8-Hole STRIPs 20x - 2-and-2-Hole 90DEGREE-ANGLEs 14x - 2-Hole STRIPs 100pcs - #6 Screws Consoles, Equipment, Seating, and Personnel will be added soon ... Sorry, Image-2 is missing the Tube's End-Cap. Obviously, erector parts (including 3mmx10mm bolts and nuts) are needed to build Models with these printed parts.

I used a 0.8mm Nozzle Tip with 0.5mm Layer Height setting. Can use any tip from 0.2mm to 08mm should print fine. It took between 3-10 minutes per part to print. - Walls and Caps need to be Rotated 90-degrees to be Flat on the Table to print properly. - Rafts are suggested for Large Nodes. - Parts may be a little thin and fragile - so be careful when removing. Post-Printing Some Parts may have burrs -and need filing to finish. If the bolts seem loose, gluegun may help. How I Designed This Used TinkerCad.
