[OLD] 1/8th 1/10th offroad RC shock stand

UPDATE jan, 1st 2024:

I made a much better Shock Stand:
You might want to try this one in stead:

***********************************

I went from 1/10th to 1/8th buggy racing. Some of my 1/10th-gear wouldn't fit obviously, .. so I designed some new stuff.

This is a shock stand for the bigger 1/8th shocks.
The design is very simple, but is easy to print, stable and can be disassembled for easy transport.

After that, I designed another base for this stand so that I can use it for 1/10th shocks as well.

Print Settings

Printer Brand: Prusa

Printer: I3 MK3S

Rafts: No

Supports: No

Resolution: 0.2 works fine

Notes:

I print most of my stuff with Prusament PETG as I like the fact that this will break less then PLA and is more resistent to temperature.

... but I guess PLA will do fina also.

The parts fit nicely together if your printer is well tuned (0.1mm gap).
If you have a less tuned printer, I think that a little dab with some sandpaper or file will do the trick also.
