Hello my friends!
Been working very hard the last days to make this one a reality!!! Probably my most challenging birdhouse to date!!! Its a little bit different from the others, and i had a lot of constraints while designing it!
First, the original Vw Bus is not suitable for this in its original dimensions. Wayyyy too long, too narrow and trying to fit this in a 220mm bed and making it big enough for birds was simply impossible.
That's why i choosed the short bus version. Those custom made mini buses are legendary all over the world, and their dimensions are way more friendly for this application.
That being said, I could have done it all in one piece and said to paint it all once printed. But.... yisssh....
Instead, i made it as a multipart design, and this is where the headache started...
Making those connecting together without compromising too much the interior space for the birds = Quite challenging...
Also, even though there's a few supports, most of the design is support free and this too was a real challenge.
At the end, i think the final product is really nice and i'm really proud of it. Although its a bit more complicated than my other birdhouses, its an easy project is you follow the instructions included in the zip file!
HARDWARE:
(10x) m3x6mm screws
(1x) m3x10mm screw
(4x) m4x10mm screws
And thanks to Daniel who gave me the idea of the Westfalia, which was the beginning of this project!
Have fun! Keep printing!!!
