Description

This is a variation of my G scale tipper trolley, which is in turn derived from Evgeniy's Tipper Wagon.

This model has only the frame with a turntable. This allows an attached load to swivel, or the trolley can be used as a bogie.

There are 4 frame variants:

• frameTurn - normal frame with swivel plate for +-30° rotation

• frameTurnBreak - frame with break platform and swivel plate for +-30° rotation

• frameTurnFull - normal frame with swivel plate for full 360° rotation

• frameTurnFullBreak - frame with break platform and swivel plate for full 360° rotation

There are no variants with 2 platforms. I found those to be impractical in combination with swiveling/turning loads, and therefore decided to not create them.

This model contains only the frames, and the break man's platform (which is wider than the tipper trolley variant, and is the same as used in the flat trolley with pegs). All other parts needed to complete the trolley can be found in the "main" model: G scale tipper trolley, and in the separate attachment uploads.

Printing

All parts are already oriented for printing.

I used PETG via 0.4mm nozzle at 0.2mm layer height with default settings in Prusaslicer. The frames were printed with 100% infill for a bit more weight, but that is optional.
No supports are needed.
