efferman Posted January 26, 2014 Author Posted January 26, 2014 Nijcasno, you know that the small cv joint has a half stud a full round axle so you would have a half stud offset to the original holes? Andycw, with the small cvjoint and one towball in the lower original hole and the upper new hole, the pivot line should end under the tire. Quote
nicjasno Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Ah, yeah. I completly forgot about that half stud. :( Quote
AndyCW Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 And this would give kingpin inclination. Even better. How much kingpin is too much? And is this an example of that? v/r Andy Quote
nicjasno Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 No, this wouldn't have kingpin. Not by default. Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) another part which is not really neccessary, but i think it makes some things more stable. what do you think is the main use of it? Edited January 27, 2014 by efferman Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 yes btw, have asked a a rapid prototype companyhow much the parts would cost in white and silver one set in white (hub, wheelholder and rim) 82,75 € and the same in silver 97,62 € pretty expensive i think Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 they have two methods for plastics. Fused Deposition Modeling (material ABS) has a layer thicknes of 0,25mm and so this is not suitable for round things. the prices are for Selective Lasersintern (sls with PA as material) the dealer has this choosed for my parts Quote

If you want to pm me the files I could get a quote from the place I am using. Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) here are the files https://www.dropbox....1s/inventor.zip edit: will the price will sink when i save material or is the complexity of the part the reason for the high price? Edited January 27, 2014 by efferman Quote
AndyCW Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I guess I misunderstood his statement then. v/r Andy Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Sorry Efferman can you save them as STL files. Regarding prices it is the volume of materiel that is expensive.If you can break your part into one stud thick sections if possible. Edited January 27, 2014 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
nicjasno Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 The price with 3d printing is dependent on material used, not complexity. Make it use as little material as possible. Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 ok here they are in stl https://www.dropbox.com/s/m6bcxp1cqkq4b92/inventor%20%282%29.zip Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Quote sent,I should hear back tomorrow. Quote
DrJB Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) And this would give kingpin inclination. Even better. How much kingpin is too much? And is this an example of that? v/r Andy No, this wouldn't have kingpin. Not by default. I think AndyCW is right, the design allows for a kingpin inclination. The top and bottom connection points need NOT be on the same/aligned holes. All you need for a kingpin is to connect the Upper and Lower control arms to different holes (not aligned). It is however a FIXED angle and no room for adjustment. Edited January 27, 2014 by DrJB Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) alasdair, i have made them less heavy, can you ask the price too? https://www.dropbox....ckhubleicht.zip truckhub von efferman auf Flickr Edited January 27, 2014 by efferman Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Very cool. Hopefully somebody from TLG will see this and offer it in future sets. Quote
nicjasno Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I still think you should just take the stock turntable piece and not make your own. That extra hole can be done with liftarms/connectors. Quote
efferman Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 unfortunately the standard turntable piece fits not in the 8110 rim Quote
nicjasno Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Hm... true. :( The 8110 rims are such a failure. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 alasdair, i have made them less heavy, can you ask the price too? Done.... Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Efferman there is a problem with the scaling with your file,can you answer the question below...... "I had a look at them - some of them came out very small (under 1mm) - I thnk that there is a inch/cm/mm unit issue - can you give me the XYZ dimension of this parts and I can scale the others accordingly (they will all be the same)" Edited January 28, 2014 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
efferman Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) the newer file "plantethub" is on X axle 39.9mm, on Z 30,674 and Y 34,705mm btw, i have something new truckaxle von efferman auf Flickr edit: an different rapid prototype service want for the lighter parts (same options including tax) 45€ edit² have ordered two of the following part planethub2 von efferman auf Flickr Edited January 28, 2014 by efferman Quote
