A skidder is any type of heavy vehicle used in a logging operation for pulling cut trees out of a forest in a process called "skidding", in which the logs are transported from the cutting site to a landing.

##<ins>There are three ways to print this.

1. As single piece:- Please download STL file but there wont be any movements.
2. Multiple Pieces :- Download 3mf file with Full_dismantled.3mf.BEST QUALITY OUTPUT. Please use the 3mf file for assembly also. CHECK EASE OF PRINTING TITLE BELOW
3. Combined:- You may use any 3D viewer software like 3D builder in windows to merge components according to your printer and filaments. The sky is the limit for this. You may find a sample file ending with combined.3mf.

#EASE OF PRINTING

1. <ins>This model contains parts of 4 colours - YELLOW, BLACK, RED & WHITE. I have seperated these into different plates according to colour and in the optimum print position. Please download and extract the file “Print Plates According to Colour.zip” to make use of them. These plates can be opened in any slicer and printed according to your print profiles. Check the names of the files for the colour to print with.
2. Print the wheel axles at minimum 60% infill Density
3. The 7th and 8th Plates can be printed with filament change for the brand names on the top, if you choose so.

#<ins>ASSEMBLY OF MODEL This is done in 5 steps. Please follow the steps.

1. <ins>ASSEMBLY OF GRAPPLER & ARM
2. <ins>ASSEMBLY OF FRONT CARRY
3. <ins>ASSEMBLY OF MAIN BODY
4. <ins>ASSEMBLY OF CABIN
5. <ins>MATING OF PARTS

#<ins>STATIC DISPLAY LOCKING The are specific mechanisms provided by which various links can be locked in different poses. Please use a small piece of filament to lock the links as shown in the instructions below

#<ins>Movements Included

1. Grappler Full Movements
2. Front Arm Full Movements
3. Front Carry Steering
4. Rear Bucket and Engine Bay Cover
5. Rotating Chair

NOTE <ins>The tolerances to some elements are zero which has been intentionally provided to friction lock the elements while not in movements. You may have to fine tune the tolerance from your end using scaling function in slicer to ensure good fit without compromising movements. This also applies for the pins that make rotation possible between elements. Please proceed with printing all the pins after testing printing a pin and testing the fit of a joint. You should be able to find the adequate scaling factor with this.</ins>

The main body is made hollow to ensure filament savings.

Supports should be provided as required.

Appreciate the makes uploads. Open for suggestions.
