Compressed Air System

Compressed Air System

Part of a Series

The compressed air system is part of a series of several models (mainly workshop equipment) that I designed for my locomotive shed (N gauge). I will gradually publish more models

The Model

Every proper workshop needs compressed air. Therefore, I also designed a compact yet sufficiently dimensioned compressed air system. The system consists of two components: a compressor and a medium-sized compressed air tank, so that the compressor does not have to run permanently. The compressor has a display on the front, a flap on the front and back, and a large grille on the front through which fresh air is drawn in. The compressed air tank has a rigid connection to the compressor, has a pressure gauge on the front, and a connection on the back to be connected to hoses and pipes

I printed the model in one color, as otherwise the printing time would take too long. Feel free to paint the individual components of the system in Bambuslicer with the “Fill” option and print them in multiple colors

The model is approximately 18 x 7 x 13 mm (scale 1:160 or N gauge). However, it can of course easily be resized in Bambuslicer so that it fits, for example, H0 (1:87) scale or TableTop etc

Instructions

Since the model is very small and delicate, you urgently need a 0.2mm nozzle for printing!

If it is printed with a larger nozzle, many details will be lost or not printed at all. The print profile does not include an AMS option; you can set that yourself if needed

keep bastling

I always appreciate a photo or comment :)
