As my son really likes playing with wooden trains, I decided to surprise him with a familiar one.



I found it on Printables.com and knew immediately that we both needed it. It's a really nice model that's easily recognisable compared to other wooden train STLs that can be found on the internet, and it's really easy to print. As I am lazy and wouldn't do the painting myself, I asked my colleague to print one for me on a multicolour printer, and it went really well!

The model is really smooth and easy to assemble. I like it a lot. In fact, it has inspired me to try multicolour printing on my own Ender 3V2. It's a bit tricky with that printer to change the filament during printing because I've always had problems with the layers not connecting properly when I've switched filaments, but I like the model so much that I might try again just to make another car.

For now, I have found a magnet with a hole in the middle, which I have screwed to the front and back in the hope that it will connect with other cars.

This is the first finished prototype unit. More of them may be printed later. :)
