Description

Modular 1:30 scale Tesla Cybertruck

A simple snap-fit model, glue is required to affix windows and tire caps/snap pieces. I would recommend glue to affix the top and bottom halves together, however it is not required to sit on a shelf. This is mostly a port to Maker World from thingiverse so more people can enjoy this amazing model with tested print plates on an X1 Carbon. The A1 plate is made purely as a starting point, A1 makers feel free to test and make alternate print profiles if necessary.

I tilted the wheel inner snap piece because printing flat caused the wheels to break at the layer line. The orientation and manual support added was the best I could come up with to rectify the problem and has worked well for me thus far. Granted, some minor sanding was necessary to round off the first layer. I also recommend assembling the wheels first, letting the glue dry FULLY before assembling to the underbody. It does take a considerable press to get the wheels where they need to be, fitment is very secure and they can rotate semi-freely.

The Cybertruck print pictured above had a white headlight and red brake light added in post with an acrylic marker.

What issues would you be having in particular?

keeps coming lose from the build plate. I tried my 3rd party plate and the og textured plate. had an issue with both. like I said it might be my pla+ I'm using and not being completely dry. I may try some petg or drying the black pla+ I have. it is duramic (some brand I've never used before)

@JoeMama27

Replying to @dustydumptruck :

That's a great first step, PETG black looks amazing against the PLA body due to PETG's natural shine. Only thing I would suggest that you haven't outright mentioned yet is to try cleaning your plate. I typically use 99% IPA and a rag. Two steps: First apply IPA to the plate and wipe with a rag or towel, microfiber preferred. Then after drying I spray some more and leave it to evaporate as the bed heats to remove any residual oils. Caution to not spray too much, very little is needed for this step. I work in an aerospace ISO 9000 clean room environment and those are the steps we take to clean surfaces that need to take adhesive for a long period of time. Has always worked well for me in printing.

had a hard time getting the windows to print perfectly flat but was able to get everything glued in, looks great!

@JoeMama27

Great to see it ended up working. Where was your difficulty with the flatness of the windows if I may ask? Something I can improve?

@spideme

Replying to @JoeMama27 :

I figured out it was the 3rd party pei plates I got from Amazon. They are too thin so the plate setting in Bambu for pei wasn't bringing the nozzle close enough to the bed, thus causing the window prints to lift. I used the cool plate setting and upped the temp to 65, solved the issue

@JoeMama27

Replying to @spideme :

Indeed that would do it. I'll also say that the windows turn out better on the cool plate anyways. You get a choice between top and bottom surfaces to have showing. The rear window especially benefits from the cool plate as it makes for a flatter surface.

Great model overall. One recommendation would be to have the tabs on the tailgate be a bit shorter, I caused a crack trying to force it in. Also the wheels don't rotate at all for me. Update: After forcing the wheels to rotate one round using a wrench, the wheels do spin semi-freely as promised!

Thank you for the advice. I've actually been working on a major overhaul for a bit now. Some changes include support removal and shorteningthe tailgate hinge. Other changes are a bit more exciting and will have to wait until release to see.
