H0m fire fighter 1000mm narrow gauge boxcar 99-01-80 (Resin 1/87scale)
Description
When I published my [equipment car / boxcar](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5548829) in TTm (1/120 scale) in October 2022, I was new in 3D modeling and fare away from resin printing. On demand of a friend, I remade this car from scratch and with the help of my latest models and new designed wheel bearings – here we have the ###H0m equipment car 99-01-80 And sure there is a [TTm version is available here](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6207183). ###History The historical car was built in 1899. The source [1, p. 200] mentioned 2 similar vehicles. The source [2, p. 144] mentioned NWE numbers from 311 to 314, a count of 4 cars. I come back to this topic on [another page](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6212535). Wagon NWE 312 was numbered 99-02-02 in 1957 and repurposed in 1965 as equipment wagon for the fire fighters and got the new number 99-01-80. [2, p. 146 and footnote on p. 148] I’ve got some pictures, so we now have the real random window deployment starting around from brakeman seat counterclockwise: - with 3 parts (the village house window), - old ventilation slit and missing logs closed with a glass (the ugly window), - a single part window (you find older pictures with a window with 2 parts at this position in [2, p. 143]) (the Muppet show window) and - finally, a closed ventilation slit. On the brakeman’s side is a hole for a pump hose and at the sides 2 more holes near the floor. These holes can be closed from the inside, so I made them in closed state. ###Printing These files should be printed in resin. I strongly recommend ABS like resin. I print the boxes flipped over (135 degrees). I usually use medium supports in Lychee but use light supports on the thin parts and at the "ugly window" ### Post printing Guitar stringsor brass wires were used for the handles, bent and glued in place. I create break handles from brass wire and sheets. I use 8mm TT gauge wheel sets and insert them after a dark primary paint layer, before spending to much time in painting. Even ABS like resin breaks. You can widen the cones with a drill (opening angle 60-70°) but my test print run well without. Windows are from clear plastic glued in from the inside. ###Origin and licensing The design is based on [3] p. 34 and pictures made + found by Julius. I don't want any commercial use of this design and prints. You are free to print my work for your projects, close friends and maybe your model railway club. Please post your makes. If you are representing a model or railway club, a school or something comparable with these and want to use it for educational purposes in higher numbers, please tell me. ###Sources [1] Kieper, K., Preuß, R. & Rehbein, E.
