    I FINALLY GOT A 3D PRINTER!!!

    Ok. Well you've got the right idea! In tinker cad, make a mockup of the chassis (Motor, motor mount) and use that as your cut out. Let me know how it goes!

    I FINALLY GOT A 3D PRINTER!!!

    Glad to help! From what I know, unless you made the model yourself or unless the 3d model is saved a a project (with each step made), I don't think any Cad will let you let you resize a specific part, not once it is saved as a whole model. But I could be wrong. :)

    Value of HO Trains

    Hello Paul. Yes, like timlange3 said, look up each thing on eBay and check the sold. Now, where are you going to sell them matters. A lot of people will check eBay and then think they can get that at a garage sale, and that's not how it works. He needs to think about this, and if he wants to...

    In case you (Or anyone) was wondering. Drag the rule tool over to the model. Right along the ege. Change sizes as desired. You can also change what you are measuring by in the settings.

    I FINALLY GOT A 3D PRINTER!!!

    Yes. That is the the thing about tinkercad. It is the only Cad program to work like that. So You have to think outside the box. I am assuming you mean you need to be able to get measurements into designs into tinkercad (Or in general)? Cutting holes IS different then in other Cads, but you can...

    Proof of concept (Of what you can make in Tinker Cad). https://www.tinkercad.com/things/56jw1XLVdxY- I just hope I can get that good! 😅

    I FINALLY GOT A 3D PRINTER!!!

    Cool. Not Cool. I know what you mean, but sometimes you have to think out of the box with this one. Especially if all you re doing is making a minor change to a model. 👍 Have you seen the new Sketch tool? Yep. That's why I haven't done much with it yet. :confused: Yes. Sucks that its not...

    Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Very good eye! 👀 Yes! That is exactly like me. I have many things in mind. Always keep your eyes out! I am young, so trust me, price was a factor. But if you keep your eyes out locally, you might be able to snag one for a good price. Ebay and FB Marketplace...
