Description
Loosely modelled after a Mercerdes Unimog
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unimog
Printed mine on an Ultimaker in about 11 hrs total.
The bed lever leaves something to be desired, it's not quite working as I'd hoped.
All STL's have been dimensioned so as to account for the oversize that my Ultimaker/gcode-generator produces (ca. 0.2mm around the perimeter).
Mine runs smoothly, images are to follow.
Have fun !

Instructions
Print all parts in the amounts as mentioned on the drawing.
Use nails or PLA-filament for respective axes.
Check instructions on the drawing.
Any average spring from a ballpoint-pen will do for the suspension (use 4 identical ones, preferably)
Any small spring from a ballpoint-pen will do for the bed-lever.
I used superglue (Cyanoacrylate) for fixating/glueing parts. Please observe caution using this: safety goggles, gloves, ventilation etc !
Alternatively, use hotglue, in which case watch out for the operating temperature of the hot glue gun nozzle !
