Description

This is a front loader accessory for the "Easy to print Generic Front Loader (esc: 1:100 or HO Scale)" by "guaro3d" (Luis Corado). However, it is in N-Scale (1:160 ratio).

In order to print it for the unmodified/unscaled front loader, it needs to be scaled up by a factor of 1.6 (160%). For HO-Scale it needs to be scaled up by a factor of 1.84 (184%).

This will (most likely) NOT print on a regular FDM printer. A 0.3 mm Nozzle is necessary to print this part in N-Scale. It should print out just short of awesome on the Anycubic Photon DLP printer, though I haven't tested that yet.

I suppose 1:100 or 1:87 should be okay on any regular printer with a 0.4 mm nozzle. But beware, the parts are delicate and might break easily. This thing is purely for decoration.

The log fork and grapple are two separate parts. I carefully drilled holes into both models to insert a piece of brass wire. I initially reused the basic design of guaro3d's attachment (hence I selected that this is a remix), but had to rebuild it, as it didn't scale well after fusing both parts. I ended up doing it from scratch.

The photo below is actually a make with the earlier variant of the log fork. This thing contains the upgraded variant shown in the rendering above.
