Car Crusher 1/64 (FDM)

Descripción

STL files for my car crusher design. This model is based on real life examples of more modern crushers. 1/64 scale will allow to use this model with Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Greenlight and other cars of the same scale in dioramas. Its designed to be used as static prop in junkyard dioramas. There are NO attachment parts to truck, so it can NOT be attached to scale trucks as trailer. Its designed to be used as 1/64 scale only, so I don't recommend to resize it to other scales. Middle crusher part can be moved up and down, so you can place your car model inside. But its not really a working prop, it does NOT have a working sliding hydraulic cylinders, the middle part just slide in place. Because its tricky to make all these tolerances work at the same time its not grippy enough to hold itself in up position without car inside (you can place something inside in trailer cylinders to stop it going down). I tried smaller tolerances, but then middle part often get stuck cylinder parts. So my final design is more loose. My example build does not use mudguards and number plate, but these files are also included. As we can see in my images you can fit normal sized cars inside (its all based on real example measurements), but larger vehicles, like heavy duty pickup trucks won't fit inside. Main trailer part length is around 21 cm but its narrow enough so when rotated diagonally I was able to print it on my 18x18cm bed.
