I wanted to challenge myself with this CAD design and see if I could make a roll cage for my RC. The roll cage needs to be printed with some impact resistant material.
I happily share this model for free, but it took me quite some time to make, so if you feel like buying me a coffee (Ko-fi) it would warm my heart and encourage me to make more models for the Omni Terminator. I already have more plans for it. :) Ko-fi.com/vez3d
Recommend materials:
- TPU with high hardness like 95A or maybe shore D range.
- HIPS
- ASA, ABS
- Maybe PETG if it's your last resort
Avoid PLA as it is too brittle and will crack easily. I highly recommend TPU for its ultra good layer adhesion to print it in the orientation that it was designed for.
BOM:
- 4xM3 heat inserts (5mmx4.5mm or 4.6mm x 5.7mm)
- 4xM3 8mm bolt (to join the 3 models with the heat inserts)
- 4xM2.5 16mm bolt (for the top cabin cage)
- 4xM2.5 8mm for the front bumper
- 2xM2.5 6mm or maybe 8mm for the rear spoiler
Printing:
- Use higher than normal temp to improve layer bonding
- Print each model separate (or in by object sequential) to maximize heat between layers for better bonding
- Supports are only needed for the front cage
- 3 layer wall, 3 bottom, 3 top, 10-15% infill (don't go crazy here to keep weight down as much as possible, but don't go too light so its weak)
