1/24 slot car cooling stand

Gives a 1/24 slot car something to cool down on between runs. A small fan sits in a red housing that funnels air through a wide nozzle, aimed a little downward at the car on the tray. Change the tray size and the roof height to match your car.

Assembly

  1. Screw the fan to the flange.
  2. Run the fan lead down behind the fan to the tray.
  3. Bolt the foot to the tray.
  4. Set the car on the deck.

Good to know

  • The tray, car and bolt-spacing sizes are estimates. Check them against yours on the Adjust tab.
  • The deck is 54 mm long under a car of about 190 mm, so the car balances on its middle. Test it with your car and add rails or a longer deck if it rocks.
  • The nozzle blows under the car's nose, not over the roof. The fan's cooling effect on your car is untested.
  • The skin-defect warning points at the ghost objects outside the part (y=-70). I don't believe it is on the shroud itself.
