<p>This is my printable version of a springer tug - a small rc push boat - scaled down to 190mm by 83mm.<br></p><p><br></p><p><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ92AC9zggQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ92AC9zggQ</a><br></p><p><br></p><p><b>Note: all designs have to be scaled down 1:10 before printing. I work mostly with SketchUp which has trouble dealing with smaller objects (ie: extrusion, binary operations tend to fail when dealing with sub 1mm^2 surfaces).</b><br></p><p><br></p><p>I've printed it in ABS as I find it easier to make ABS prints watertight: I just brush them with acetone. But it should probably work in PLA too once you get the hull watertight.</p><p><br></p><p>You'll need some RC equipment if you want to actually get it going, obviously.</p><p>There's a bill of material on my site, as well as pictures and videos of the thing.</p><p>==> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://rc.noalia.fr/boats/microspringer/">http://rc.noalia.fr/boats/microspringer/</a></p>
