Pontoon Treadway Bridge

Post by Tiger6 »

My latest project in the continuing battle with Wayne to prove who is the bigger 3D printing nut job:

The pontoons are off of Thingyverse, considerably enlarged and split into 2, because not even a CR-10S4 is big enough 8O
I've added the loops for the ropes and replaced the original Thingyverse treadway bridge parts with my own.

I've given the first 2 a coat of Plastidip rubber spray paint - while it seems to look the part, it didn't seal the interior quite as well as I had hoped, but they still seem quite functional:

If you want to be a bigger 3D nut than Wayne you have a tough row to hoe, my friend. @) @)

Hi there!
Good job the one who is doing.
If you are not already in Thingyverse, could you upload the file so you can make a copy for the enjoyment of the forum people?
Thank you from to Spain.
Anthony.

Interesting you should say that, Pete. When T6 first told me about the project he showed me this photo, so I don't think he's done with this project by a long shot. 8) :haha:

Hi Tiger! Thanks, one question more you´r modification the pontoons in 1/100 to 1/16 yes? Because the thingiverse is in 1/100.
Thank you best regards.
