Tri Axle Dollie (Tamiya 1/14 compatible) by Todd_Grady

Last crawled date: 2 years, 11 months ago

I had already printed and made the single axle dolly, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2803604,
and the dual axle dolly,https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2797463, (The single and dual axle dollies are in my "likes" folder).
But a triple axle dollie was not available.
I've created the longer rails and a longer draw bar too, to now make the tri axle dollie.
All the parts are printed in PLA+ from 3d Fillies with 20% infill with no supports, however, the crossmembers are printed upright with rafts.......to hold them onto the print bed.

.
Tamiya hardware required to assemble these parts are:
8 off 3x15mm self tapping screws
rails/crossmembers/rear bumper)
4 off 3x8mm self tapping screws
(5th wheel plate/rails)
2 off 4x20mm machine thread screws
2 off 4mm lock nuts
(draw bar/rails)
.

C bag from Flatbed Trailer kit 9415260
B tree, x2, from Flatbed Trailer kit 0005500
Or, Carbon Reinforced "B" Trees 56525.

Tamiya tyres are sold in pairs. 9805456
Screws & nuts for joining of inner & outer rims are already in the C bag.
Likewise all the parts for the axles, including the hex drives and wheel locknuts.
You'll also require the 5th wheel parts too.
