Cujo31 Posted September 10, 2021 Posted September 10, 2021 Greetings all! I am from Wisconsin near the Frozen Tundra and a avid designer and 3D printer... a consummate tinkerer. I have recently been 3D printing various vehicles and turning them into RC controlled vehicles. I would love to work on 3D model of the Weasel and RC the vehicle. I would also like to do it correct scale at 1:6. Here is where I could really use some help. I am really looking for ANY reference material that might be available that has dimensions, measurements, etc. There are some orthographic drawings online but they offer VERY little in the way of size, dimensions, etc. Even if you feel like throwing a measuring tape of your project vehicle, it would be a GREAT help to me!!!! If I get enough help to be able to create a fairly decent representation, I might make the files available to the group for anyone interested. Really do appreciate your time and effort, and your amazing ability to keep a part of history alive! Thanks!!!! Quote
F-D Zernia Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Cujo31, Interesting handle. There are some good publications from Portrayalpress that would be of help with your project. I would recommend beginning there. TM9-1772 has 2 drawings on pages 257 & 258 with hull dimensions. This would be an excellent start point to determine if this is complicated or not for your equipment. Also you would find suspension parts with no dimensions in that manual. Where in Wisconsin are you located? We are from there too. If you can get your email to us it may be possible for us to provide information and be of assistance. Fred Quote
Cujo31 Posted September 13, 2021 Author Posted September 13, 2021 CUrtis JOseph 31 - so used to using this handle that I use it on almost all forums I visit. Cujo3131@yahoo.com is the easiest e-mail to contact me at these days. I am in Wisconsin in Sherwood, which is just outside of Appleton near High Cliff State Park. I have started mocking up the basic shape of the design, but any and all info would be a great help. I have never seen one of these in person so I am going off of what information I can glean from photos etc. I really do appreciate you reaching out with any information. Thanks! Matt Quote
