Jet Car Hits Vienna - Goes Right Through It


See my full write-up of the Jet Car project on Tested.com


I still can't quite believe this happened, but the Buckaroo Banzai Jet Car is currently on display in Vienna, Austria during Vienna Design Week.

I was contacted by a London gallery, So Far, the Future which was interested in displaying the Jet Car in their sister gallery, So Weit, die Zukunft which they opened during Vienna Design Week.

I had been meaning to do an updated version of the Jet Car which was more detailed and movie-accurate and with less than a month to go, I scrambled to get it done and printed in time.  It just made it and here it is.

This version was printed on the Objet in the same material as the Octopod.

You can check out the original version of the Jet Car and the printing process in my earlier post.






This was originally built to print on the ZCorp machine, thus the cleaning holes, but due to technical difficulties I had to do an emergency print on the Objet.  I would have built the Jet Car differently if I had known.

Had to get creative to clean this one.
