Designed to be as durable as possible. No supports needed. Strong enough with PLA, but PETG is even better.

This is a reinforced replacement connector designed to withstand the play style of a 5-year-old. Unlike the thin standard pieces, this version features increased wall thickness and a more robust mid-section to prevent snapping during high-speed races or track reconfigurations.

Key Features:

  • Reinforced Geometry: Optimized with extra material for maximum durability compared to original connectors.

  • Precision Fit: Engineered in FreeCAD for a tight, secure "click" that holds track sections together firmly.

  • Material Recommendations:

    • PLA: Works well for standard use.

    • PETG: Highly recommended for superior impact resistance and flexibility—essentially "kid-proof."

Printing Tips:

  • Orientation: Print flat for maximum strength along the connector tabs.

  • Nozzle: 0.4mm

  • Layer Height: 0.2mm
