Description

The display is based on usual used car shop design, small office and a huge car lot. The display is double the size of my usual design, so it is split into 2 piece for printing. It is more flimsy due to the thickness of making the ramp works well with Hot Wheels and 1/64 cars.

The holes for tying the cars are designed to fit most Hot Wheels, there is a no holes variant included that will fit any cars too.

But if it doesn't fit and you want the base to fit a specific casting please send me the dimensions indicated here: https://imgur.com/5T6mb2L

• Porsche 944 (Hot Wheels)
• Holden Commodore Ute (Matchbox)

Print Settings

Nozzle size = 0.3 mm (0.4 will be printable and smaller better)
Layer height = 0.2 mm

Filament change layer for colours on "Signboard1Build.STL":
1) Start (Overall background colour, mine is in white)
2) Layer 7 (Signboard outer line, mine is in grey)
3) Layer 12 (All lettering and logo colours, mine is in black)

Assembly

The car is tied by wires through the hole in the base

Print both pt1 and pt2 base and it is aligned as shown here: https://i.imgur.com/WUVt7X4.png

Use some tape to hold both piece together, dont use too much tape since it could make a buldge on the flat base.

The flat base are place on to the base as shown here: https://i.imgur.com/DBCOO3k.png

The outdoor wall will fit in between the gap of base and flat base, the wall will also act as additional support for holding both base together.

The square hole at the top right corner is where the office will be placed.

The garage door are split into 3 files, 2 of them are the rails of the garage door. The garage door is a flat and thin piece that bends around the corner in the rail.

Street lamps are placed in the larger holes that I cut on the flat base, 3 at the back and 3 in front of the lot.
