I printed this little train set for my 18-month-old grandson. His eyes lit up when I gave him the engine, and he insisted on taking it for his nap. I gave him the set, and he spent more than an hour exploring how they connect. His father wants one for the house that he swears he won't play with.
While I praise most of the design for its simplicity, the wheel and axle set does not work well. Even printed at 100% infill, the wheels break off too easily.

If you use clippers, make sure you re-round the ends. I made the hole a snug fit, and you may need a bench press to put them together evenly. If you fee
