Summary
It is a model of a Mazda Miata / MX-5 (NB) in a kit card style.
This is a complete redesign, based on the idea of my old model. This one has been redesigned from scratch with more experience and knowledge.
Some characteristic details can be discovered. Equipped with seperate exhaust!
After printing, the model can be assembled with the help of integrated connectors.
The wheels can be turned, but the car will not roll.
Versions
The complete set is available in a STL file for a one-color print.
There is are two 3MF-file with predefined colors intended for users of AMS or MMU.
One with softtop and one with hardtop.
Otherwise, the chassis, rims and tires must be printed separately.
Print
Print with 0.15 layer hight or lower to bring up the details. I printed mine in 0.2mm layer height.
No supports are needed.
Use 3 perimeters and 10% infill.
Post processing
The small struts can be removed really quickly and cleanly using a side cutter.
Assembly
The kit is easy to assemble. All parts fit together very well.
Use some grease for the hole in the rim so that the wheel turns more easily.
If a part should be loose, superglue can be used.
Dimensions
The fully assembled model has the following dimensions
Height: 38.5mm
Depth: 124.3mm
Width: 59mm (including side mirrors)
The complete kit card has the following dimensions when printed
Height: 32mm
Depth: 130mm
Width: 93mm
Scaling will work in a low range due to the tolerances.
Other models
I will also try to publish other car models. Stay tuned!
I hope you had as much fun printing and assembling it as I did :-)
Due to regulations in Germany, I cannot open a Printables Club as a private person. I will therefore publish all premium models free for everyone.
Do you like my work? I would be very happy if you would support my work on Ko-fi.
