ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL
According to the genius inventor Emmett “Doc” Brown, time-travel recipe is as easy as pie: Mr Fusion fuel processor converts garbage to power for the flux capacitor and the flight circuits which help generate 1.21 gigawatts of power needed to travel to any point in time. Well, we may understand what Mr Fusion is, we have enough household waste to feed it for sure and the author of the model did prepare a flux capacitor for 3D printing but what the hell is a gigawatt? All jokes aside, the time-travelling might be fiction now but we are totally convinced that Doc from 1985 would be stunned by the opportunities that 3D printing technology may bring. For example, this assembly kit comprises elements that will help your 3D printing DeLorean acquire all the essential parts both of an ordinary car and a time-travelling device. The Mr Fusion here replaces the nuclear fission reactor and the car’s exterior receives its futuristic flux coils. There is also a microchip for the time circuit controls that is fastened to the hood that the fictional car received at the beginning of the trilogy’s last instalment. While the microchip may as well include vacuum tubes, the 3D printing car’s engine parts impress with the meticulous attention to fine details and the author’s striving for realism. The things might be heavy in the future but creating your own time-travelling DeLorean has never been easier - just order the STL files!
ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING
While working on the Assembly Kit 2 of the DeLorean model, Gambody team made sure to make both model’s “time travelling” decorative elements and mechanic parts of the car as true to life as possible. Flux coils around the car’s body were separated for you to be able to print them in transparent filament and illuminate with rope light. All essential elements comprising the DMC’s engine like the radiator, exhaust pipes and hooks, gas tank, alternator and compressor belts etc. were “taken off” the car’s frame and are to be printed and assembled separately. The most careful attention was dedicated to the gem of this assembly kit - an active suspension that comprises the finest elements for you to assemble an extremely realistic rolling chassis. There were also prepared two different types of bearings for front and rear wheels of the 3D printing car. The reason why the front bearings are thinner is to allow for the simultaneous movement of front wheels with the help of a steering rack that was also introduced. All assembly parts are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and so that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. The model's assembly requires additional "pins" to secure the parts of the 3D printed car. These pins do not come in STL files but can be made out of short pieces of regular 2.85 PLA, screws or wire of an appropriate diameter. We highly recommend that you watch "Assembly video" in the photo preview section before assembling the DeLorean time machine. When downloading any file that comprises the kit you will also receive "Assembly Manual" in PDF format.

Below you'll find detailed slicing settings for Bambu Studio 2.0+, Orca Slicer 2.0+, UltiMaker Cura 5.0+, PrusaSlicer 2.0+, Slic3r 1.3+, Simplify3D 5.0+ to help you get the best results when printing this model. These settings are optimized specifically for this 3D model, but please note they may need slight adjustments depending on your printer or filament. When in doubt, refer to your printer's user manual.
To avoid printing issues and achieve the best quality, we highly recommend applying the following settings:
For better quality use 0.12 mm layer height, for fast printing use 0.2 mm layer height. For pins and the Ge connectors, use 0.2 layer height.
120-150% of your Layer Height

This field is filled in according to your printer specifications when you add it to the slicer.
You can add custom G-code here for the start and end of the print. However, be careful - this is for advanced users only!
You have to calibrate your printer using Ge retraction test models
Retraction Length: For direct-drive setups use 0.5 mm to 2.5 mm; for Bowden extruders use 5 to 7 mm
This is how fast the filament is pulled back—40-60 mm/s for direct drive and 30-50 mm/s for Bowden setups.
You have to calibrate this parameter: Reduce it until the printer starts to hit the parts with the nozzle during printing, then increase it by 0.2.
For better quality use 0.12 mm layer height, for fast printing use 0.2 mm layer height. For pins and the Ge connectors, use 0.2 layer height.
120-150% of your Layer Height
To increase the strength of the print parts, use wall line count: 3
For pins and connectors use 50% Infill
These parameters are for standard PLA plastic. If you are using a different type of plastic, check the printing temperature recommended by the manufacturer. Also, read the description on your filament spool. For fast printers, add +30 °C to the current parameters.
The parameters in this tab vary greatly, it all depends on the quality of your printer. For example, if you have a classic Ender3, stick to the minimum parameters, but if you have a newer printer, for example Anycubic cobra 3 v3, you can select the maximum recommended values
Settings for advanced users, change these parameters only if you have sufficient 3D printing expertise.
You need to calibrate this parameter using Gambody test models. These values are average values for a Direct Drive extruder; for a Bowden extruder, the values should be increased.
You need to calibrate this parameter using Gambody test models. These values are average values for a Direct Drive extruder; for a Bowden extruder, the values should be increased.
Use this value other than 0 if your nozzle catches on the internal infill during travel moves. Try to keep this value as low as possible in height.
Use normal supports to support large, straight surfaces (most mechanical or technical parts).
You have to calibrate this parameter according to the capabilities of your printer and your filament, using a Gambody test models.
Use 1 instead of 0 if your supports are thin and tall. They will be harder to remove, but much stronger.
Top Z distance = 1-1.3 layer Height. If the supports are hard to remove, try increasing this setting by 0.1-0,4 mm

The parameters in this tab vary greatly, it all depends on the quality of your printer. For example, if you have a classic Ender3, stick to the minimum parameters, but if you have a newer printer, for example Anycubic cobra 3 v3, you can select the maximum recommended values
Settings for advanced users, change these parameters only if you have sufficient 3D printing expertise. Use the minimum value for outdated printers without acceleration calibration, and the maximum value for modern printers if you need it.
These settings only work for 3D printers with multiple extruders
You can try setting all parameters in this section, except the First layer, to values between 0.75% of your nozzle diameter and 1.25% of your nozzle diameter. Adjusting them will help you work out the optimal parameters for the best quality for your print. As for the First layer, you can set it to 150% of the diameter of your nozzle for better adhesion to the build plate (for a nozzle with a diameter of 0.4 mm, the First layer extrusion width can be from 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm)
For better printing quality you have to calibrate this parameter using Gambody test model.
Check your filament manufacturer's temperature recommendations on the spool.
Cooling parameters depends on the material you use for printing.
