Description
Sand Weight Core for Mario Kart Live Tyres
Purpose
This model is a small, capped tube designed to add weight and durability to tire barriers. It is intended to be used inside a 4-tire-high stack of tires to prevent them from being too light or easily displaced during RC car crashes.
Practical Uses
It serves as a fillable core for Mario Kart Live or other RC car tire decorations. By filling the tube with a chosen material, the user can increase the mass of the tire stack.

Printing and Assembly Guidance
According to the author, the tires should be printed normally and glued together. The core should be printed, filled with a chosen material, and then the cap should be glued on. Finally, the completed core is glued into the stack of tires. While the author used PLA, they state that any material will do.

<p>I've made a bunch of these tire barriers from Makerworld: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="editor-link" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/636438-mario-kart-live-rc-car-tyre-wall">https://makerworld.com/en/models/636438-mario-kart-live-rc-car-tyre-wall</a> They're great, but they're very light and don't hold up to crashing well. This model is a small capped tube that fits perfectly inside the regular 4-tire-high stack with cap.</p><p>Print the tires as normal, glue them together, then print the core, fill the core with whatever you want, glue the cap on, and glue the core into the tires. Any material will do -- I used PLA, but it's not required.</p>
