- Here's a project I've been working on the past few months... A Fully Functional, 3D printed Old Cast P5. After seeing the video of @TheHornKing 's example, I decided to try making my own from the same models. 6+ rolls of filament later, here it is. I intend to make a P0 bell as well as a 4a for more experimenting in the future.
Each bell was printed in PETG with removable spacers so I could adjust the fine tuning myself. Running double diaphragms and 3d printed cushion rings made from eSun TPE-83A, which surprisingly worked better than the genuine ones from Airchime.
The models were not made by me and are not currently available to the public. However, the creator of the models does sell completed 3d printed horns here: www.facebook.c...

**Please Read before commenting and asking for the models:** The CAD designs were not made by me and are unfortunately not available to the public. However, the creator of the models does manufacture and sell completed 3d printed horns here: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087374113210
I was told by the guy making it not to exceed 115 psi at the manifold or it can damage it. Is that true.
@@nicholasdoucette9240 I wouldn't want to find out lol. Mine has withstood probably 130 but I can't compare because my manifold was sliced and assembled differently. I'd take his word for it though
@@Traincrash101 I installed a pressure regulator. Dialed to 115 I got 60 gallons of air on my truck hopefully that's enough. My compressor keeps up with the demand.
You would never guess that it was 3D printed. Sounds fantastic!
Sounds better than any other real old cast I have heard! Wow very impressive
A W E S O M E
I need to print Wabco E-2 for me LMAO!!!
Great work!!!
HOLY THATS 3D PRINTED!!!👍
Definitely sounds great I got one being made now. Coming from Australia.
holy shit that thing sounds MINT 🔥🔥🔥
:p
Can you post the files somewhere to print it?
May I ask what infill pattern did you use? Great sound btw👍
Sweet horn🫡
That shit is CLEAN!!
The horn of the rock island railroad
How much air pressure were you running? That sounds amazing! Are those STL's available anywhere?
Thanks! I was running around 27 gallons at 110 psi.
The files were released about two years ago but have been taken down by the owner to prevent legal issues with Airchime
Where can you find the CAD files to 3D print these??
Amazing! I have a question though, are the prints available?
They are not sadly. The creator took them down to avoid legal issues with Nathan Airchime
@@Traincrash101 that sucks
@@Traincrash101my brother please provide them if you still have them i am dying to have them
@@luckyrail23 The creator asked me not to distribute the files for the above reason, nothing I can do unfortunately
Sound of Amtrak
Will they wear out fast?
Nope, rubber nozzles
how did you get the files then, like for real a gate keeper
They are not mine to give out. The creator does not want the models going public for legal reasons. They are allowed to make and sell completed horns however, which you can find in my pinned comment.
@@Txloganc If you had any clue about potential legal issues that could arise then you’d understand why the files aren’t being distributed. If you want to buy a horn, you can contact the page linked in the pinned comment. Gatekeeping for good reason.
How much would it cost to have you make one to sell?
I can’t sell them myself but if you’re interested send a message to this page. (the creator of the 3D models.) m.facebook.com/welluidend/
May I ask what the material is?
A polymer of some kind I assume?
I know absolutely nothing.
Are the diaphragms stainless steel?
Internal components identical to original aluminum cast version?
The material is called PETG. Not sure what it’s made of but I believe it’s similar to the plastic used in water bottles and milk jugs. Diaphragms are the standard stainless steel and the bell geometry is identical to the real ones, so it’s fully compatible with genuine parts. The main difference is the lack of screw threads and NPT fittings
@@Traincrash101 thanks for the reply
How much for one? Or to be honst howuch for a copy of the files...
I'm not allowed to sell them or give out the files
@Traincrash101 ooo did you make it or is it someone else? Maby an email
@@hamiltonsullivan6563 Someone else made them facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087374113210
@@Traincrash101 thanks appreciate the info!
bruh just gatekeeping
How long did it take to print each bell?
Depends on what speed settings were used.. I think the #5 bell took around 10 hours and the #1 was probably around 20 hours (all on 100% infill)
@@Traincrash101 wow! Talking like a week to print everything almost.
@@Traincrash101 May i recommend more perimeters (walls) instead of infill? 100% infill is a huge waste of filament and has almost no effect on strength whatsoever. 70% infill is absolute most you should be using. However since you want strength, i recommend 5 to 7 perimeters and 25% infill (or less) instead.
@@Sharpless2 very valid, though I think it was necessary to have 100% infill where the bolts are so the plastic doesn’t get crushed when tightened (power chambers, backcaps, bell feet). But I could get away with lower infill on the bell flares and manifold
Why spend a fortune, when you can make it at home. Did you give it a tag?
Not yet but I definitely will at some point lol
Do it in a city
