Description
As evidenced by one of the attached photos, the right part of the main boom breaking seems to be a frequent failure mode on the Bruder midi excavator / CAT Minibagger 02456. I made this little clamp that is super quick to print and can just be CA-glued to the arm. Seems to work quite well and much more economical than throwing away toys ;)
Best printed using PETG, laying flat on build plate and with many wall loops ( > 4). After printing CA glue to the excavator arm and wait a few hours before use.
