I made an opening video for those following the original thread. I will get still shots this weekend.
What do you think? I appreciate all the feedback in the first thread on this. It does make a difference.

Looks good. I appreciate the effort and courage to undertake the project. Thanks it has been an interesting process and I've learned much. Stayed tuned though. I am working on a folding double header trailer that should be out in January. I chose this project via a poll on my Rockin H Farm toys facebook page. Plus I wanted to test how complex 3D will go. This newest project so far looks to be very cool. Eric

3d printing looks to be the way to go making toys, being able to replicate something with so much detail and do it over and over without variations or flaws is just awesome.

I wonder if this would work well for a disk or ripper

I wonder if this would work well for a disk or ripper Try it and find out. I think it would. I have no experience with design so I'm paying people to do it for me. So far each has indicated limitations regarding size and important information to get the model accurate without compromising strength and functionality. You can download SketchUp free and begin learning design. I downloaded it but so far my time is better spent doing stuff that pays and hiring others to do this work. So far my design expenses have been reasonable IMO. Eric www.sketchup.com/
