Finally a new chassis prototype! Tomorrow I'll start printing the other parts such as the foot boards and brake rigging and so for now I only have the main chassis block. There are still some things to correct such as removing a lot of the supports s they made it completely impossible to remove everything cleanly, but the chassis still looks better.
It probably won't be the final prototype as I still need to figure out how to mount the kinematic coupling springs and as of now I don't have them yet. Overall I'm incredibly please with the result. As I should given the fact that it took about 13 hours to print! and goodness knows how many hours It will take to sand, fill, prime and paint it!
Here are some images along with some other models for scale
