This model is so cool looking. I did some sanding on the orange body where the supports attached, but that's to be expected. I had to attempt to make the light trail as well. This was my first failed attempt at the trail, I have other ideas, but I just salvaged this one and used some sharpies to add some color. Unfortunately I don't have 15 different shades of orange... lol Eventually, LEDs will be utilized I just have to figure out how.

@Henlor

That's really nice. I'm doing some test myself for the trail using the principles as hueforge but I'm still not 100% happy with it

Replying to @Henlor :

Oh NICE! that's a perfectly acceptable gradient! I'm working on something similar :)

@chenry_76

What orientation did you print the red top? and where can i find the light trail?

That main body piece will not print no matter what I do. It's trying to print the whole thing on top of supports which is just not going to happen. I'm going to cut it in half and print the halves.

Support Issue

The designer has replied

@Henlor

Sorry to hear your miss adventure :S I assure you it can be printed on the support only. I printed mine on a A1, so maybe reducing the print speed of support and outer wall, that might help. Also make sure your plate is perfectly clean. But of course, cutting it in half, is also a good solution.

Replying to @Henlor :

It's so easy to cut in half honestly. I'm printing it now with a separate little dowel piece. I tried with supports twice and I'm using all Bambu filament. Dunno but I can't get the main model to print on top of the supports.

@thebadgebadger

I also had two failures with that main body piece. I think I'll try a halved version as well.

@EdinBearDragon

Excellent engineering, parts fit together very well and logically. I did though have to slice the Chassis in half to get it to print... Oh and I *had* to make a light trail too...

Thanks for you feedback. I totally understand you, for the light trail, I'm myself working on one ;)

Had some translucent red left and decided to see what this would like with it. I should have slowed print speed down some more and picked a better color to go with the red but I still like it. Printed and went together super easy. Thanks for this model.

The designer has replied

@Henlor

That gives it an interesting look. I kinda like it too. Thanks for sharing your print ;)

@zotprints

Are you kidding? That red is awesome and unique. I agree with you on the print speed. I am printing 2 chassis right now, one will probably be Gold and the other will be either Bambu Green or deep purple. There are no rules for color. Be as creative as you want!

Replying to @zotprints :

You can't go wrong when the filament is called blood of my enemies. But that dark band where it's not as translucent as the rest because it printed faster at that spot bugs me. I also should have found something better than the gray to complement it.

Printed mine white to look like Flynn's refurbished OG light cycle in tron legacy. It turned out amazing. all the pieces fit together perfectly. Thank you

@Henlor

looks awesome! I like the reference to the Tron legacy movie ;)

Awesome. I'm a 47yr old gamer and you can't be a gamer and not live TRON! now to make the other colors! Next time I'll make sure I have no super glue in my fingers before handling :(

The designer has replied

@Henlor

Thanks you for your rating and feedback. I'm also printing all the other colours ^^ I may try to do a version that doesn't require glue.

Replying to @Henlor :

i tried to print a 50% size, but the top body part, where the two sides come to a point, would not print on the support. i tried 6x and even slowed it down alot. There just wasn't enough plastic to put down to grab and it spaghetti'd all over. Once i went back to 100% it's fine. i may try that part in 75% and see. i wanted smaller bikes, i have limited space with all my LED projects lol. Also, how about adding a light wall to the rear, glued to the smooth edge on the read tire. Optional for anyone printing it, but i'd love that.

As I said in my rating, the print profile took some tweaking for silk, but eventually i got it there and banged out 6 of these bad boys. I am very happy with the result and to show my appreciation, here is a boost for your hard work!

Holy cow that's quite the collection! Im sure @Henlor would love to see this! It's amazing the difference printing in silk makes visually.

@Henlor

Replying to @NaughtyShepherd :

Indeed. I'm very pleased. What a beautiful collection 😍

@Henlor

Thank you, it's much appreciated. What a collection, that's wonderful 🤍🩵💙❤️🧡💛
