The next project for Union Scrap

I got the Walther's Pole Barn kit in hand and the largest building is in progress.  I've cut the overall depth down and left the roof to the actual length so it has an overhang on the front end. I'm in the process of painting now.

I also designed what I am calling the scrap slots.  This will be a concrete design where separated types of scrap are positioned so a crane can pick it up and pivot around to deposit it into a waiting gondola.  The crane rides on a raised platform so that it is above the gons and can traverse across the slots to grab the different type of scrap.

This was designed in TinkerCad and printed on my Bambu P2S.

One of the slots will be filled with old tires, which I have also printed.  I think I printed out around 400 tires on two separate prints.  This should give me enough to fill one slot and give enough left over to make a couple of gondola loads.  These tires were found on Maker World and then I resized them in the slicer.

The larger tires got a little stringy since I didn't use any supports, but a little work with a knife and tweezers made short work of cleaning them up.
