I printed these trains for my students who successfully modeled this toy train in Fusion 360, as it was their final for our Intro to Engineering and Design course - Semester A. The design is based on the technical drawings for the old PLTW curriculum, but I redesigned the pegs and accessories for a sturdier print. Assembly takes less than 30 minutes, and tolerances should be that which creates a tight fit, but in case of shrinking, a dab of caulk or super glue works wonders! Body: 1.5hrs and ~50gWheels x4 : 48min and ~17gCow Catcher: 18min and ~2.5gTrain Stack: 30min and ~ 4.5gLinkage Arm, Pegs, and Hitch: 25min and ~5gBoost MeThis is my first model I've printed as part of my lesson plans! It's probably not perfect, but I'm learning!A boost would feel quite validating for the time I put into this customized project for my students, thank you :)
