Building at meepo no, it's not better than lacroix screw you. (SERIOUS)

Ok so prior to seeing dirtynunfishing’s thread I wanted to do at hubmotors. But this requires either turning hub motor too dd kit, or creating covers to go over hubmotors and replace wheels .

I’m planning 100 percent infill possibly adding some supports. Making 3 test wheels one in nylon, petg,and abs
Looking for actual help thanks

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone using trampas skate trucks before. Best of luck man!

My suggestion: set infill to 0%, set perimeters (walls, shells, depending on slicer) to 10, and set “solid bottom layers” to 999999 or whatever it takes to make the whole part solid. Then make the solid bottom layer type “rectilinear.”

This strategy (which i think of as “plywood printing”) has been the way I have found to make the strongest prints. Either way, lets us know how this ends up going!

This is the dude who built the board and now you want his 3D file to print the same wheels on my board.
They say the highest form of flattery is imitation.
Cant wait to see your results my friend. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::blush::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@grumpypuppy108 built your board for you?

Alexandru Andrei in London. He is 3DFactory on YouTube. He does sell the Meepo wheel conversion to AT tyres in different sizes. And the File for printing I’m sure. He is a great guy and very helpful.
