Description
Toy car with wheels that move, but requires no assembly. Here is a short video:

The wheels took some effort to loosen up after printing, but they now roll quite nicely on the right surface.
Other problems:
There is definitely some warping from the plastic cooling/shrinking (I used ABS).
The transition from the wheel to the axle is a bit steep for the makerbot.

Hey Karl,
I really like this serendipitous discovery/innovation. Can I have your e-mail address so we could discuss it. It's such a good example of the things we're finding out by having a large group of people trying it. :)
Thanks for the positive feedback! You can contact me at paranya2@mac.com or on twitter (@kparanya). I'd love to chat about this stuff.
