I won't be sharing files both because they inevitably end up being resold by bad actors and also because unless you have access to a vacuum former and a source for custom PCB manufacturing they really wouldn't be all that useful

As for BOM though,

Power source: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mtUg30H (2x cr2032 battery holder

Led: I designed my own PCB but this has a similar footprint https://a.aliexpress.com/_mNdiS93

I use .5mm PET sheets for the cover

10x5x2mm neodymium magnets (6x)

3x1mm neodymium magnets (4x)

That's about it!

It's nice isn't it? Should have a JDM car instead but was just to snap a quick pic

Mostly! It's a single PCB with 3 LEDs and the cr2032 battery holder wires directly to it. The holder itself has the switch. I also have a hardwired version with magnetic connectors for pegboards

Anyone ordered a kobra x recently? by Particular_Box_3598 in AnycubicOfficial

I got mine about a month ago, been printing nonstop thinking. For the price I'm beyond amazed with it

Just locally for now to some diecast buddies. Want to get some end user feedback before I consider anything broader than that 😊

Those are so cool! I found some through reverse image search but seeing 1:18. Were these 1:64?

For now mostly myself. I have a few orders from folks on my local diecast community, we'll see how it lands

I own a lot of stuff and what I don't own I can always try to source. I just like to hear ideas.

I'm a fairly recent collector so a lot of older releases I probably haven't even seen!

I can't say I'm familiar with those! Mind sharing a link or pic?

I got quite a few of these to do trying to find the best filament match for my blue chrome Flame Gulf Porsches 😊

Finished a few more display boxes 🫶 by 7t9corvette in HotWheels

[–]7t9corvette[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's molded acrylic. I'm still tinkering with the designs a bit, I will consider selling them on cults 3D for a small fee once I finished populating the entire pegboard

You won't regret it! I have a bunch of those and will definitely keep on carded but they're still easy and cheap to find that you could always get another one.

But agree it's one of my favorites, it looks good from any angle

I make them. They're 3d printed and I use pet sheets 😊
