I modeled a toy train in dollhouse scale based on this toy I found online: https://www.littleobsessed.com/tiny-wood-train/. I do not actually own this miniature so I guessed on the dimensions in creating this model. To create the train please follow the steps below. 

Note: this is a small train so I used toothpicks for the axles so that the wheels rotate. The toothpicks I used can be found here: https://www.kingsoopers.com/p/kroger-round-wooden-toothpicks-250-count/0001111089217?fulfillment=PICKUP&storecode=62000061&&cid=shp_adw_ob.shopl_.FY23.01_search_ob_conv_ob_ourbrandslia_kingsoopers_g_lia_shop_acq_evgn_ourbrandskro_all_roas_cleaning-and-household&gclid=CjwKCAjwjaWoBhAmEiwAXz8DBdg8T9-5TPV0_LkIBXTMIl91n4UO-fW6NQPx5WKJbEcHJlZ0aE3TJRoCv28QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds. But most round toothpicks should work. If toothpicks can not be found the wheels can be directly glued to the model, this will just make it so the wheels do not turn. 

 

1. Print the train cars, the wheels, and the hooks to connect the cars. These can be printed at 0.2 mm layer height and without supports. 

2. Cut the toothpicks to size as shown in the image below. 8 axles will be needed for all the train cars. The axles just need to be a little bit larger than the train itself.

3. Glue one side of the toothpick axle into a wheel as shown in the image below. 8 axles should be glued into 8 of the wheels. 

4. Glue the back hook (the loop shape hook) into the backs of all the train cars as shown in the image below. 

5. Repeat step 4 gluing the front hook into the front of the trains. 

6. Once the axles with one wheel attached have dried, place the axles through each train car and glue a wheel to the other end of the axle.

 

This model was printed on an Anycubic Mega Zero 2.0 with a 0.4 mm nozzle in HATCHBOX PLA filament.
