Description
I built a cab only scx24 but it felt like it was missing something on the back, so I whipped up this scale crate with a license place cutout for a 1:24 scale license plate and it turned out working for exactly the look I was going for. Can be glued to whatever surface you want, there are also two holes in the bottom of it to screw it down if you'd prefer, just pre-drill the hole with an appropriately sized bit and use m1.4 hardware to attach. If you don't like the license place cutout, you could always orient the placement to make it less visible on your build.
My printer had no problem printing upright with no supports. Example in photos is printed in matte tan PLA and mimics a wood texture pretty well. Print quality may vary depending on how dialed in your printer and filament are. If you have issues with the printer bridging the gaps on this model let me know and I will work on a profile with supports, supports may impact overall finish quality which is why I prefer to print without if possible.
