Custom First Gear Garbage Truck -

Here's a quick slideshow of a recent project I've been working on in my spare time. I decided to do up a custom 1:34 scale Heil CP Python body, utilizing the existing First Gear Heil Python lift arm and Mack MR chassis. This brief slideshow shows the whole project from start to finish - from my initial 3D CAD drawings, to the unfinished 3D printed resin parts, to the final finished product after all the hand-crafted parts and paint were completed. All-in-all, from start to finish, I worked on this project over the course of about 8 weeks and the total cost was around $300. Feel free to drop any questions and comments down below. The custom body is fully functional, and I will post a demo video in the next few days. Also shown is a set of custom 1:34 Scale 300 gallon refuse carts that I also had 3D printed at the same time.

That's pretty cool with the 3D printing. Nice job!

Awesome work!!! Wow it looks great!! Hmm wish I had the resources to make something like this. Great job! I love it!!!!

[@_rafaelitoooo]

WOW! Nice cool model

[@Young4Family]

Well done! I see you've spent countless hours preparing this truck. This gives me a lot of ideas because my dad owns a 3D printer. I'd love to see more if possible.

1:46 who else noticed a cat in the background ?

[@AlliedWaste76]

Holy fucking hell, What 3D program do you use, if you don't mind me asking? Would love to make one my self sometime. Damn nice work bro!

[@matthews7572]

Make a video of it in action

[@BlueKitsuneSakai]

Do you still have the files for the body and the cans? And would you be willing to share them? I just got a 3D printer and this looks like it would be fun to make!

[@AlliedWasteFan1]

Do you do this with all your models?

[@hydrauliclaunchcoasterfanf8104]

Did you make that

[@dont1117]

Hey I was wondering if you can make me some garbage cans that would be really cool man!

[@SoxFan-cf2fq]

can I buy this?

[@SoxFan-cf2fq]

How did you get the parts, and how did you get the cab? Can you get the cab from the same website? What is the website called? PLEASE REASOND!!
