City Streets: Modified Wooden Train Tracks

The wooden train track pieces in the City Street series of Michal Fanta unfortunatly don't fit my IKEA pieces well, so I modified the connection of the train tracks to make them fit better. To complete the collection, I also added the remix collection made by Repoholy, so you find the modified versions all in one place.

The main problem is that the male connector of the IKEA piece and female printed piece connection is too tight. It will require considerable force to join them together. Therefore, I modified the pieces in the set to make sure that the pieces:

• Connect to IKEA and Brio pieces;

• Connect to the original printed pieces;

• Connect to double tracks of IKEA and Brio, because the gap between two single pieces differ per brand. 0 mm for the original, 3 mm for IKEA and 6 mm for Brio.

The fit with IKEA/Brio pieces is nicely loose, but not too loose in my opinion. The connection between male-modified and female-original is flush, but not tight. Tolerances might vary a bit depending on nozzle and printer, etc. I tested only with the Core One + with the 0,4 mm nozzle.

Test before you print

To make sure which version connects the best with your track pieces, I advice you to print the following piece from both the original and the modified sets:

• A3_Reduction_Micro_Straight_Track

This piece is very small and contains both a male and female connection to test on your pieces
