Here is an alternative load for your Turbo Racing 1/76 scale C50 semi truck.
The pipe load makes an attactive alternative to the container or empty trailer options that are supplied by Turbo Racing.

All parts were printed in PLA using:
Layer height 0.2 throughout
2 perimeters
4 top and bottom layers
15% infil
No supports
The attached .3mf files are those I used on my Prusa Mk3S+ printer.

Print the pipes standing vertically and you can add a colour change for the protective end caps of the pipes.  Drop a M10 steel full nut into the cutout to match the nose weight supplied with the Turbo Racing box container.  I used a small piece of Blue Tack (poster putty) to stop the nut rattling, and then add a narrow strip of double sided tape to attach the pipes to the trailer.

The tie down straps simply clip into place over the pipe load and trailer bed.  I have included two versions of the straps.  Version 1 is exactly the right shape, while Version 2 printed a bit neater on my printer.  If you use Version 2, cut the centre section of the strap out using a pair of side cutters to match the Version 1 strap shape.
