F1 Inspired Tire Keychain (Stationary)
If you are a fan of F1 or enjoy cars and motorsports, you might be interested in this keychain. It is inspired by the famous F1 slicks, and unlike the real tires, you can take this keychain with you anywhere you go!
They are also great as decorative pieces to stack and pose, even if you don't use them as keychains!
(Note this is the stationary version of this keychain, we have another version that spins if you are interested in that model, here's a link: https://than.gs/m/1028247 )
As seen in the picture, there is a normal tire variant and one with a hub styled like the wheel pods used in modern-day F1 and other motorsports for their aerodynamic properties.
-Assembly: Both versions of the keychain come in two styles, one that is a single piece that can be split into parts in your slicer for multicolor printing. Another style where the hub, tire, and decorative colors are all separated pieces printed separately and glued together. -(Helpful tip: when gluing the hub in the wheel, put a few small daps of glue inside the tire and insert the hub bottom first (so that if there is residue, it is not on the front of the wheel). Use an alcohol prep pad or other super glue solvent to wipe up any excess glue to prevent discoloration of your printed part)

Print Settings:
No Supports
0.1mm layerheight (this is especially important for the wheel hubs as they have supports predesigned in that need to be printed at 0.1mm to function correctly)
(These supports are printed on the underside of the wheel and can be removed with a set of needle nose plyers, if you are having difficulty with removing the supports use the plyers to bend the arms of the supports towards each other, this should loosen them further)
A brim may be necessary when printing the colored inserts for the tires, as they are pretty thin.
