An underground grader machine, often referred to as an underground grader or simply a grader, is a piece of heavy equipment used in underground mining operations. Its primary function is to level and smooth the floor of underground mine tunnels or roadways

I am very thankful to Mr Benoît Lussier for his feedbacks which has helped me refine the model further.

There are three ways to print this.

1. As single piece:- Please download STL file but there wont be any movements.
2. Multiple Pieces :- Download 3mf file with Full_dismantled.3mf.BEST QUALITY OUTPUT. Please use the 3mf file for assembly also. CHECK EASE OF PRINTING TITLE BELOW
3. Combined:- You may use any 3D viewer software like 3D builder in windows to merge components according to your printer and filaments. The sky is the limit for this. You may find a sample file ending with combined.3mf.

EASE OF PRINTING
