T-01 Hopper 3D print model

**Before purchasing:* I recommend test printing my free tread frame print model. The bearings are print in place and require a reasonably tuned printer or they will fuse together and will not spin.

**There is currently no alternative to the bearings for rotational movement

The T-01 Hopper tank is the first of many 3D printable tanks to come. This particular tank uses bearings for the wheels and the horizontal turret rotation which allows for incredibly smooth movement. The treads roll and grip well, allowing for movement accross smooth and textured surfaces. The barrel has lateral movement, the top hatch opens, and there are two small storage sections above the treads.

All parts are designed in imperial units.

Roughly 9in x 6in x 5.5in (Length, Width, Height)

This T-01 has currently only been printed with PLA at 15% infill or more. There are nearly 130 pieces in all (mostly treads), and will use more than 500g of plastic. No glue required! All pieces easily snap together. Assembly instructions are provided in the form of 4k jpeg images. Recomended part print orientations are also included in the form of 4k jpeg images. The majority of parts do not require supports if printed in the correct orientation.

Do not print the bearings with supports

This is an incredibly fun mini marathon print that will test both you and your printer, do not be shy to ask for advice should you run into issues.
