This fully printable 1:6 snowmobile will bring you a really good performance while having a really good looking look! Everything was designed to be easy to print and assemble at home, with as little amount of material required as possible, to increase performance and reduce waste!
All is in a zip file containing all of the instructions, photos and files needed to make one at home with a FDM 3d printer. (You will not receive a physical machine when purchasing this item)
Every updates will be free in the future, you only purchase this item once. (Current version 1.7)
The parts were designed to be printed in a Prusa Mk3 printer or bigger. (250x220mm print volume)
If you have a minimum of 200x200 you will be able to print it as well, but the tunnel will likely have to strengthen a bit to re-assemble. (good glue, 3d pen or similar.)
Less than 200x200 will likely not be big enough to print everything.
A video of assembly will be coming soon on youtube.
Meanwhile, Use the photo bank to help you assemble it
Thanks for your support!

Disclaimer: There is a good chance you will brake parts if you drive in a manner that beyond the strenght of the parts and design. They were designed to be easy to print and fix however, so you should not have any problems in that regard.
The parts were designed to be printed in a Prusa Mk3 printer or bigger. (250x220mm print volume)
But a minimum of 200x200 can print the unit.
I give no guarantee that it will print well on your machine, but if you follow the guidelines on the .txt file, it should help you set the parts for optimal strenght and printability.
