This set will reduce the bump steer in the factory ORV front suspension. Please see the video prior to purchase to see what is needed for the installation. This is shown in SLS nylon that was dyed with RIT dye and can also matte clear coated. You can also paint these. 

MJF is also available but only in grey (stronger but cant be dyed well).

This brace will prevent the shock mounts on your ORV trailing arms from braking under lots to use. The conical shock screw bosses to not allow for much strength when you load the shocks. It creates a bending moment on the screw and it will fail, usually when you are out having a great time. It can also salvage a broken mount since there are two mounting points. This brace captures the whole cone and allows a longer machine screw to affix the shock. Please see the video prior to purchase as trimming or sanding may be needed. DO NOT FORCE THE BRACE TO SEAT OR YOU COULD DAMAGE IT. 

Please note that due to material costs, the old Stainless Steel prints are now nearly $100 USD each! We are now using MJF plastic as it is a very strong material and will still help with this failure point.

I lived with many animals in our youth. I played with observing the appearance and movement of animals, and also became a material for manga and made toys. And it later became the source of inspiration for me. The object of this folding design is an insect, a stag beetle characterized by its beautiful horns.

This stag beetle has a structure in which many parts of the six-footed insects move. I have undergone many trial and error to implement this move, and I have finally completed it.

The first is designed to move the bark that covers the wings. I put a protrusion on the end to fix it well. The second time I had a nice horn to move. Third, the legs do not move, but they are designed to hold well in good posture.

The cautions in the folding process are that you must put the legs in the body first and then proceed with the rest. And another thing to note is that the horn can fall off the molding plate during the printing process, so use Raft in that case.

Various animals with exoskeletons have inspired mankind. Not only the structure of the animal, but also the shape, inspired many products. Foldable design has tremendous potential for design and manufacturing. To maximize this possibility, it is necessary to apply foldable designs to animals with exoskeletons. This foldable stag beetle will open up another possibility of folding design.

With this foldable stag beetle, enjoy your fun 3D printing by recalling the memories you had with insects as a child.

These braces are intended to help the front mounting points on the Tamiya Stadium Blitzer and Blitzer beetle by redistributing the impact forces to the main chassis. Please see the video prior to purchase.

These parts come white and can be dyed (RIT Dye) or painted (as shown and seals the nylon) in matte paint.

This set will allow you to not only add the front lamp set to your monster beetle, you can also make the lights work. if you do not have a monster beetle nose cone or the mounts have broken off, the 060002-01 brace adds the mounts back or reinforce the stock mounts.

You can also replace the stock bracket for the non-operational lamps with a better looking one that has working light buckets and clear printable lenses.

The light bucket and lenses come in pairs so you will have one extra. 

For all the information shown, please view the video prior to purchase.

This design is a foldable VW Beetle that many people have requested me. The model I referenced is the 1949 model. I also like the VW Beetle very much, but in the meantime my skill wasn't good enough to design this complex form in a fold. But with the continued development of skill, it is now possible to produce this design.
This design opens the hood and the trunk in two parts. The car is a rear engine (Rear engine, rear-wheel drive) structure, with the engine behind it. So you can open the rear trunk to open the engine room and open the front hood to see the spare tires and other compartments.

※ We recommend to use the Raft, if object does not stick well to your 3D printer bed / plate. Especially the hood and engine cover are easy to fall off.
※ Please be very careful about hood and engine cover.
The bumper is well fixed with the use of glue.
