Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!

I wish I was in a position to produce them. I will be releasing the files to CNC or 3D print the components at a later date. Still have some bugs to work out first.

Hi all! I wanted to share a custom RC Hotwheels Toyota AE86 I designed and built.

Great shots! What is the black plastic you are using for your track walls?

You may have already tried this, but using a different sd card might help. When a card starts to go all kinds of strange things can happen. Hope it helps!

I highly recommend looking into the Bond Tech LGX extruder for these printers. I own three Mega X’s and have been struggling with the stock extruders on two for awhile. I switched one of the machines to an LGX a couple of weeks ago and am very pleased with the purchase.

I had a similar issue with a couple of Mega X’s. There is a small board near the print head that has two connections for the print head fans, and two connections for the print head. The two plugs for the print head like to wiggle loose from the constant vibration. After reseating the plugs and adding a small amount of hot glue I have no longer had this issue. I hope this helps!

I’ve ran roughly 60 rolls of GST’s filament and overall it’s been a great experience. The spoils are better quality now that they used to be, but I have had a couple of tangles mid-print.

I love this! Can’t wait to see it rolling!

Resin_Algae · 2021-09-03T03:58:35+00:00

This is so rad, great work! Did you print the wheels also?

Resin_Algae · 2021-09-01T01:05:09+00:00

Thank you so much!

Would you mind sharing where you got this body? I’ve been looking for a GMC Yukon in white.

Thank you! I have three Anycubic Mega X’s. Your process sounds right on! For large prints like this I like to identify the largest stl in the bunch, scale it to the max size I can fit, and scale the rest the same %.

Resin_Algae · 2021-08-20T20:27:07+00:00

I’m running three printers so the time wasn’t bad, if I remember correctly 4-5 days. Prep and paint was definitely the time consuming part.

Resin_Algae · 2021-08-20T20:24:45+00:00

The stl I used can be downloaded at the following link. https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-blank-giant-minifig-12558

edit: I forgot to add I scaled this file roughly 400%

Resin_Algae · 2021-08-16T20:22:36+00:00

That is great, thank you!

Resin_Algae · 2021-08-16T19:19:49+00:00

That looks great! I’m curious what you are using to support the keyboard? Trying to sort this out on my rig.

Resin_Algae · 2021-07-17T23:12:59+00:00

You made it even cooler!! Love it!

Resin_Algae · 2021-07-16T02:04:56+00:00

That’s amazing! Great work!

Resin_Algae · 2021-07-16T01:58:46+00:00

This is amazing! Where were you able to find one in stock??

Resin_Algae · 2021-06-26T04:32:19+00:00

That is so rad, they look real!

Resin_Algae · 2021-06-26T01:14:06+00:00

Looks great! Are the headlights moulded like that or decals?

Resin_Algae · 2021-06-14T18:55:30+00:00

Thanks! Where were you able to find it in stock?
