Nanosaur 3

馃 NanoSaur is a little tracked robot ROS2 enabled, made for an NVIDIA Jetson Nano - rnanosaur/nanosaur. NanosauR - 銉堛儍銉椼儓銉┿儍銈伄姝岃銈掓帰銇濄亞銆係hazam銇с亰姘椼伀鍏ャ倞銈€兗銉嗐偅銈广儓銇儓銉冦儣銉椼儸銈ゃ儶銈广儓銇ㄣ儞銉囥偑銈掕銇ゃ亼銈堛亞! Nanosaur is a 1998 Macintosh game by Pangea Software. In it, you鈥檙e a cybernetic dinosaur from the future who鈥檚 sent back in time 20 minutes before a giant asteroid hits the Earth. And you get to shoot at T-Rexes with nukes. Nanosaur was bundled with the original iMac and ran on Mac OS 8.

If you are here you want 3D print NanoSaur, it鈥檚 simple, but long.

I use Cura slicer, but all other slicer works fine. Following this guideline the total time to print NanoSaur will be:

PartsTime
Base rear5h
Base front1h and 30min
Wheels and sprockets2h
Sliders2h
Cover1h and 45min
Flap and power bank holder1h and 45min
Track2x 1h and 30min
Total17h

Download you can obtain all Nanosaur parts only downloading this zip file nanosaur_stl.zip

Hint On nanosaur_stl.zip you can find a folder 025in for ball bearings with size ID 1/4in x OD 1/2in

You can split all parts following this guideline and setup the printer using this profile:

  • Layer height: 0.2mm
  • Print speed: 50mm/s
  • Infill: 15%

Base rear

To print this parts you need a PLA green. The average time will be: 5h

Nanosaur

The NanoSaur tracks are the hardest to print. You need a good 3D printer, better if your printer is direct drive. Otherwise I suggest to use a Ninjatek TPU, sufficient elastic to make these tracks.

The average time will be: 1h and 30min for each track
