Headers

Has anyone found a file for headers, I am finishing my ShowDown modified car and would rather print some headers than try to make them.

Hi Junior,

One of the best places other then Thingverse for me anyway is 3DWarehouse for Google sketch models.
Heaps and Heaps of models but they will need some work converting them to proper models for 3D printing.
Here are just a few items that came up for headers.

Keep in mind that not prints need to be done as one piece, they can easily be broken down into model kit form.
Also, If you can send me a few pics with measurements, I'm happy to 3D model it, test print and send you the file.

Cheers

Chappy, - I searched Thingiverse but all the motors seem to be more of a functioning type with pistons and sans headers. I am surprised with all the modelers out there that you wouldn't find motors and parts for 1/24 - 1/25.

Nimord - If you can get a working file, that would be great. Not sure I have the gumption to try my hand at that yet.

Printed this one, may shrink it down a little more but it has potential. Printer with a raft and with supports. this 3d printing is addictive.
