Read through the instructions for assembly, and on checking the dowenloaded/available parts I don't see either Chasis left or Chasis right listed. A few other part names don't match the instructions but are close, so are the 2 chasis parts actually called something else?

Hi Choperos, I could upload another of each of the parts, but I believe you would experience the same difficulties. However, I am curious as to why only these two parts would give Cura a difficult time. They are relatively simple pieces... I would suggest trying the stand alone Cura (I use 2.6.2) and see if that helps. Greg

I'm using the built-in version of Cura for Repetier, you think I should download Cura as a stand-alone program and slice the parts there? They're the only parts of the whole batch that presented a problem, but still, if you say they're working, I have to troubleshoot my side of the issue...

Hi Choperos, Sorry for the difficulties. I downloaded both parts from the site and loaded both into Cura. They sit flat on the build plate vertically, as I printed them. What slicer are you using? Greg

I've got a slight problem with the build, both Spacer Axle Gear Idler Large and Spacer Axle Spring don't sit flat on the bed while sliced and adding supports seems to ignore the laws of physics, resulting in 2 pieces suspended in mid-air. I tried to import them to Meshmixer and the W10 3D Builder, and not only did I achieve nothing, all size proportions were lost in the process... Have you had that happen before? =/ They are the final parts for the build and I'm sooooooooooo looking forward to completing this....

nope, it won't fit any which way. never mind, I'll just have to get a bigger printer.....

@Jim Richardson Thanks! The problem with scaling down the size is the part clearances scale down also, thus it would require a redesign. Will the body sides not fit diagonally?

Awesome concept. The only problem is it won't fit into my FlashForge finder printer. I'm printing another of your cars out as I type. Any way I could scale this one to fit? Bed size is 140x140x140. Thanks Jim

@christ6118 Comments such as yours are why I design, test, build and publish these things. I am excited that you and your son worked together to build your Dual Mode Windup Car! Very glad you liked it and many thanks for your kind words. Greg
