The file 'Turtle Shell Racer High Power Edition 3D Printer Model' is (stl,pdf,zip,skp) file type, size is 13.2MB.
I think we can all agree, life would become much more interesting if I launched a turtle shell at you every once and a while.
But it's no fun if I'm the only one with a shell to launch. Therefore,
Turtle Shells for Everybody!!!
All you have to do is print it out and assemble!
The Turtle Shell Racer is as fully 3d printable as I can make it using my Makerbot Cupcake CNC and its MK5 Extruder. The pdf file contains full assembly instructions and a parts list. This is a very ambitious project; expect to spend some time on it.

UPDATE Sept 26th
I have uploaded the modifications I made to the shells for the NYC Maker Faire.
Wheely Bar.stl - This replaces the rear axle brackets.stl with a wheely bar, which allows awesome wheelys!
New stearing Link.stl - This new link replaces the old steering linkage.stl. It is designed to capture one of the servo horns and allow a better connection between the servo and the steering.
