【Mini】BMW Mini Cooper JCW Classic 3-door Sedan Racing Assembly/Movable Wheels

【Special Notes for F1 Models】

1. The author has conducted structural printing tests on all models before release. However, the F1 model has a complex structure and requires high printing precision. Newcomers are advised to use the parameters in the slicer directly for printing and not to adjust them arbitrarily to avoid printing failures; experienced players may ignore this reminder.
2. The printing effect of the model is affected by various objective factors such as equipment, filament, and environment. If you encounter problems during printing, you are welcome to contact me through comments or private messages, and I will assist in troubleshooting. Creating is not easy. Please communicate before evaluating and do not give low scores at will; malicious negative reviews will result in being blocked. Thank you for your understanding!
3. All models from the author are tested based on Bambu Lab printers, and the configuration files use Bambu Lab's official slicing software. If you are using other brands of printers, it is recommended to adjust the parameters according to your own equipment's slicing software and preview before printing. Thank you for your cooperation!

4. As multi-color printing becomes the trend, the model is sliced with the H2C multi-nozzle printer by default. For other models, please refer to your own model for slicing preview to check the time and filament consumption.
5. Thank you again for the recognition and support from fellow enthusiasts. I hope to receive your likes and boosts. In 2026, let's unlock more F1 models together!

【Read Before Printing!!! Warm Tips】

It is strongly recommended to print the single-color configuration first before printing the multi-color configuration to test the model structure and slicing effect (Cost of single-color model printing: 64 scale 15g filament, 2 hours. 43 scale 50g filament, 3 hours). After being satisfied with the model's appearance, articulated structure, and slicing effect, then print the multi-color version. Thank you.

Note: Before printing the multi-color configuration file, you can enlarge it according to the complexity of the paint scheme. Preview in the slicing software to check the details and ensure printability.

At a friend's suggestion, the scribed livery version is released here: 【Mini】 Cooper JCW Classic 3-door Scribed Livery Friendly Version from AMBER•涔界溯影 MakerWorld: Free 3D Model Download

Model Description

- Movable wheels, no glue required for assembly. Front and rear tires are different sizes.

- All wheel hubs for 1/64 scale cars under this account are interchangeable. Browse the homepage and download your favorite wheel hub styles.

Dimensions
- 1/64 scale

- 1/43 scale: Enlarge by 150% and print with 0.16mm layer height
- Slicer files use minimal printer size settings. You can adjust the number of models printed at once according to your printer size to save time and filament.

FDM Print Settings

- The physical model was printed using the A1 mini's 0.4mm nozzle, 0.12mm layer height, and official PLA. Better results can be achieved with higher parameter equipment, settings, and filaments. (Assembly might be too tight or too loose; this can be compensated by adjusting the XY contour size of the assembly or by using sanding tools and 409 super glue for processing and connection.)
- Infill density: 15%. To increase the model's weighty feel, the infill density can be adjusted to 100%
- Supports: A combination of normal and tree supports was used.

- Various livery versions will be released later. Follow the account to stay updated on new releases.

- You can also adjust the parameters based on your own printing experience.

Support Removal Instructions

- The model is small, and supports have been added at critical points. Support removal requires flush cutters and tweezers. Breaking supports off by hand will likely lead to structural breakage, especially in the side mirrors and rear wing sections.

- Tip: To ensure successful removal of supports from multi-color models and avoid breakage, you can first print a single-color model for practice to understand the model and support structures, then remove supports from the multi-color model. (If any breakage occurs, 409 super glue can be used to reattach parts.)

Single-Color Painting Reference (Printed with white filament)

- Sanding: (Optional) Sand in the order of 400-600-800 grit.

- Painting: Use acrylic paints with brushes (for issues with layer lines penetrating edges, you can first apply the main color over a large area, then paint the edges).

- Polishing: Use a flannel cloth to sand and polish, making the acrylic paint glossy.

Assembly Instructions

- For long-term stability, the wheels require appropriate force to install and will be quite tight initially when rotated. After playing with them a few times, they will become more flexible. See the GIF demonstration for wheel installation.

- For easier installation of wheel calipers, a wheel caliper installation tool was specifically designed and produced. Link: 1/64 Scale Wheel Caliper Installation Tool from SAMPAN棱界复刻 - MakerWorld
