OO MK2 and MK2A Coach Bogie with NEM Socket to fit a Lima Coach 3D print model

Designed for Lima Coaches to replace existing bogie with a version that has a NEM socket.

The bogie has been designed considering strength against accuracy. If I had produced bogie 100% accurate it wouldn't be strong enough to use, so hopefully I have got a good balance between strength and accuracy. The bogie has been designed more at OO scale than HO scale like the Hornby origonal bogie, because of this there is a differnce in size compared to the origonal lima bogie.

Example in photos was printed on an AnyCubic Photon M3 Resin Printer Recommend soaking in IPA after printing to help remove resin in holes where wheels go, once fully cured these holes may need to be drilled out slightly to enable free running. Also some filing maybe required after printing to remove printing supports.

The wheels shown in photos are for reference use only and not included. 12.6mm replacements metals wheels are recommended. Kadee Coupling used in photo is a No18
