on3 hudson tipper

A Rescaled version of bluetobits excellent Hudson tipper, rescaled from 009 to On3.

These are designed to take HO Kadee couplers and have two different coupler offsets based on whether you use Kadee On30 wheels or Athearn HO wheels. I made a few minor changes adding simple springs and tweaking the axle fittings but its 90% Bluetobits work. There are two chassis with coupler cut into and on top of the chassis for On30 and HO wheels.

I cut the bottom out of the hopper and replaced it with soft lead sheet bent to shape to provide the weight. This brings it up to more or less the correct weight for the length of the car.

The axles are converted from On30 to On3 using https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4460502. Brakewheels were from a pile I printed ages ago and will add the link when I find it but otherwise any decent size brakewheel will do and the brakewheel shaft is just wire.

The photos show two wagons, one with converted HO and one with the larger diameter Kadee wheels
