ZBA Guard's Van
Another delivery from i.Materialise today - the first test print of a ZBA guard's van.
This is the first item of rolling stock designed since i.Materialise changed their print specifications in June, and it should print well on both types of printers used at i.Materialise.
The ZBA is printed in 2 sections. One section just consists of one side, with "everything else" being part of the other section. This has the advantage that the roof is one piece so there is no visible join. The join is only visible on the ends, but coincides with a vertical join in the boards.
The only details required to complete the model are the truss rods and handrails. Everything else is included in the 3D printed parts.
The test model is fitted with the Walthers HO bogies (933-1077) which I showed at the AMRA S scale night in July, These can easily be fitted with 12 mm wheels (26 mm axle length).
