Anyone else do/doing a 3D printed snowmobile? I always wanted a 3D printer, but when I got 1, I really had no purpose for it until I found the Skeeride snowmobile.
I had to buy the complete files, then buy a "Polar" package, then a switchback pack. I ended up with hundreds of files and no real guide of which version or revision to use. I could have done without the Polar kit, the files were included in the switchback kit, but I couldn't get then to slice and the Polar files were already done, so it worked out.
It's pretty much printed now, just waiting for bearings and a motor.
I have a baja in a basket to make a snowmobile, I figure the motor and front suspension would work, but I haven't sat down to wrap my hear around the metal work to make it happen. I think this might be the prototype for that build.
