I made this model a while back. It was lying around in my hard drives, so i’ve given it a quick update and tidying to be a 3d printable project. Here it is, continue reading for more images and STL files.
German engineers were able to create a number of interesting mini-submarine projects. One of them was a kind of crossing a submarine with a tank. This very interesting example was the ultra-small amphibious submarine “Seeteufel” (translated from German as “monkfish”) with a caterpillar mover. This boat was intended both for independent carrying out torpedo attacks and for delivering small groups of swimmers-saboteurs to the target of the attack.
.
Seeteufel was a rather unusual, even amazing, development. This “pocket” submarine was supposed to feel at home on the water surface, under water, and on land. This combat apparatus, as if descended from the pages of books by the famous science fiction writer Jules Verne. This boat attracted special attention and sympathy from the sabotage detachment “K” specially created in the German fleet. Members of this squad are accustomed to evaluate military equipment from the point of view of its combat use behind the front line of the enemy, so they could not but like this machine.
The SP-350 Denise, famous as the “Diving saucer” (Soucoupe plongeante), is a small submarine designed to hold two people, and is capable of exploring depths of up to 400 metres (1,300 ft). It was invented by Jacques-Yves Cousteau and engineer Jean Mollard at the French Centre for Undersea Research.[1] It was built in the year 1959 and usually operated from Cousteau’s ship, the Calypso.

The Type 209 is a class of diesel-electricattack submarine developed exclusively for export by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft of Germany. The original variant (Type 209/1100) was designed in the late 1960s. The class is exclusively designed for export market. Despite not being operated by the German Navy, five variants of the class (209/1100, 209/1200, 209/1300, 209/1400 and 209/1500) have been successfully exported to 13 countries, with 61 submarines being built and commissioned between 1971 and 2008.

Here is a cute robot vacuum mini. Its mini, so printer friendly. Can be produced with most printers in one piece. Easy to assemble and produce by using reasonably priced standard parts. Dowload and enjoy.
Two 50mm radial fans are used as the suction motors, the drive motors are standard DC toy motors which can be found very easily on the web.
It is the design that won me a 3rd prize in a national design competition. This is a new and improved version of Mırmır, which is modified to be a scaled down 3d printable model-toy. It can be push uperated or can be made as a RC car. It has a DC drive motor, ample space for a steering mini servo, independent rubber suspension both at the front and rear. It is a small and funny project.

The Messerschmitt KR200, or Kabinenroller (Cabin Scooter), is a three-wheeled bubble car designed by the aircraft engineer Fritz Fend and produced in the factory of the German aircraft manufacturer Messerschmitt from 1955 until 1964.
3d printable model of the legendary car
This is a 3d printable model toy of the vehicle. The canopy opens and closes, wheels turn etc. Nice gift for your child.
The Railton Special: A Thrilling Tale of Tire-Squealing Speed!
Introduction
Hold onto your hats, ladies and gentlemen, because we’re about to take a wild ride through the exhilarating world of the Railton Special! This ain’t your grandma’s sedan; this is the stuff of automotive legend, where horsepower meets the pursuit of insanity and then goes, “Hold my oil can!”
A Uniquely Insane Beginning
Picture this: the late 1930s, a time when engineers were less concerned with cupholders and more interested in making things go fast. Enter Reid Railton, a mad genius with an itch to build a car that would send other vehicles crying to their garage. His mission? To break land speed records and make every other car feel like it’s stuck in reverse!
The Heart-Pounding Power
Beneath the hood of the Railton Special lay the heart of a beast, a supercharged 27-liter Rolls-Royce V12 aircraft engine that was basically a mechanical dragon on wheels. With a wild 500 horsepower – that’s right, 500 – this engine made other engines whimper and beg for mercy. It’s the kind of power that could make 0 to 60 mph feel like teleportation, and it did it in less time than it takes to order a fast-food burger.
