Here is the whole design. The axles in this aren't the ones I eventually went with, and I am not doing the 4-wheel steer now, but the option is there if I change my mind.

I have got to get my head back in the game, and get the 3d printer hooked up, and figured out . I have ideas.
You sir are a good inspiration.

I have most of it set up, need to put the auto leveler on it and set up the software. I am down to the little bits and last steps. Real life got in the way, and I haven't been able to get my motivation back. I'm getting close though.

I never had a desire to use an auto leveler. Let me know how that works. I have heard good and bad about them.I have most of it set up, need to put the auto leveler on it and set up the software.

I have heard good and bad too. I think it depends on which machine you are using. I did level my printer manually before I got derailed.

It sucks waiting on paint to dry! Only have 2 coats on the rails so far. I happened to have some Rustoleum Key Lime Green that is an identical shade, so I thought I would try that. It dries super slow, even with light coats. Going back to the acrylic next.
Here's my C24 (number 2) that has been waiting for over 6mo for it's 2nd coat of paint.

Love that blue!!!
I think the paint has cured enough now. Scuff and spray. Are you going to be putting any stripes on that?
Nope, too lazy!
Actually, I will make stripings out of trimmed electrical tape, like I did with the white, rtr one. Also, paint the flares.
Expected time of completion is probably 2026
Bro, Thats the way I feel about all of my projectsExpected time of completion is probably 2026
I swore I was gonna get my high current discahrger built this weekend but.... Nope! I barely did anything to it. Always next week I guess
Man that is one sexy ass wagon mate, loving that!!!Those are all Faskolor Faspearls. Green, blue, white. They look a lot better when they aren't covered by 2 year's worth of dust. I still have 3 other WPL rigs. One is a 1/14 semi with a 3d printed flatbed trailer, printed rear fenders, dually wheels, and 5th wheel. It will be the hauler for this eventually maybe
These pics show the original wheels and the single wheel fenders. Trailer frame is 100% 3d printed.

Maybe I can talk @Doom! Into doing me up some racing number decals for it. It needs a big 33 with a yellow or orange outline on the hood and doors
