discussion Eager Beaver forklift in 1/76th scale

[wasdale32]

I needed a couple of Eager Beaver forklifts for a Falklands conflict diorama and couldn't find anything suitable on offer so I decided to try my hand at designing from scratch & 3D printing. OK, so they may not be totally accurate as I only had photos to go on and no dimensions, but at 1/76th scale I think they look something like the real thing. And as my Mum would say "a blind man on a galloping horse won't notice any flaws...." Figure is just for scale.

Very impressive. Are you going to upload the data to one of the websites like

You could make some money... although it's rather niche, but that's the great thing about this technology

Neil - I will probably tidy up the design and maybe break down the parts now I have a few plans and dimensions. If they come out ok I will post.
