Nothing Syncro specific is easy to find.

I don't see why the stamped steel mount couldn't be a well designed 3D plastic part as well....

Awesome! Did you see on he back the way the clear plastic attached to the design has fittings for the illumination bulbs?

[dkoesyncro]

Forrest,

That looks spot on! Somewhere, probably on the samba I seen an LED lit panel that was a personal retro fit that really cleaned up the original wiring/lighting in the back.

I can send you the steel panel if you want, LMK

I'll be uploading 3D print files here: http://print.agon.parts/

If any of you have other files that you'd like to share in that directory, let me know and I can upload them! It would be great to have them all in one place! I would recommend the following naming convention:

i own the dual head original makerbot and designed/printed a set of brackets (3) that hold the front washing fluid reservoir under the van in place. two out of three tabs on mine were broken so it was a no brainer after i replaced a broken washer pump and all seals. its been a year or so and they still hold perfect. I shaved off all of the old/broken broken tabs, resealed the outside of the tank with underbody rubber coat and it mounted under the van perfectly. the set is a bit bulky, but sturdy as hell. the tank rests on top of the brackets "glued" with more rubber undercoating after the install was complete.

also designed a crush insert/adapter for a rear table mod to join the bottom bracket and the metal pipe that fits inside the table leg to allow the table to raise over the stove/swing 180deg in my 83 AirCooled. this is for an older design, bottom bracket is entirely made of metal.

I will post the designs here FOR FREE once i find them again. no offense, but the designs on shapeways are WAYs overpriced.

Nothing super exciting but I modeled and printed the gauge cluster light housing. It's uploaded to thingiverse.

I Just reverse engineered (generous wording) and printed a new utility hook up flap for the westy. It is posted to thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2449384

Hey Everyone,

Just throwing this out there again:

I modeled this console to fit along side the passenger seat. I wanted something to hold a couple coffees and water bottles including a Nalgene. I have never printed anything this big but I know Shapeways has a machine large enough. I have several models on Shapeways and I’ve always been happy with their work. Boy was I surprised to see the price. I had expected a lot, but not $600. Oh well, time to try a different approach.

[Paulbeard]

Yeah, that's a lot of material. If you had one to make a mold from, it might work out but you'd need to sell a bunch.

I suspect a "printed" replacement for the top part of the steering column would also be spendy.

I printed this using the Shapeways strong and flexible material. I’ve opened and closed the cabinet dozens of times. So far, so good!

[Mac_Daddy_Westy]

has anyone thought or try to 3D print the South African Headlight grille? will this be too large and costly of materials?

on a smaller scale, can someone 3D print a windshield shade clip holder? I'll be happy to purchase.
