3D model description

I came up with a few different designs of shunters to fit a few different N gauge chassis. Shunters 1, 2 & 3 are designed to print flat with PLA and glue for the final assembly. Shunters 4,5 & 6 are best suited for resin print in one piece.

The chassis is available separately.

recommended chassis for Shunter1:-
Kato 11-109 motorised chassis N gauge (about Β£25)

recommended chassis for Shunter2,3,4,5:-
Kato 11-110 motorised chassis N gauge (about Β£25)

recommended chassis for Shunter6:-
Kato 11-105 Powered Chassis Small Type (about Β£28)

3D printing settings

PLA
Flashprint app comes with Standard, Fine or Fast. I tend to use Fine for N Gauge and Standard for OO/HO Gauge.
Temp 220c mostly but PLA can vary.
Bed is always 50c or cold glue.
Infill mostly default 15%.
Supports not required.

Resin
Please see my bio for Resin print recommendations.

Assembly
I use a few dabs of Revell model glue to secure.

Scale
N Gauge 1/148 print @100%
HO Gauge 1/87 print @170%
OO Gauge 1/76 print @194%

Versions
Shunters v20230422.zip - Original

Please use these slicer settings to scale up your prints for gauges larger then N gauge:-
N Gauge 1/148 print @100%.
HO Gauge 1/87 print @170%.
