Looks fantastic, well done!
Thanks! I already have a second house printed and I'm planning to make other buildings as well, I'll definitely share when I have more :)
- Printer: Adventurer 3
- Filament: Flashforge Wood (dark)
- Temperature: 190°C
- Print time: 24 hours
Had some major issues with supports failing but decided to keep printing and see where it goes. All things considered I think it turned out amazingly well. The spaghetti from the failed supports eventually began to pile up and worked ok to support the overhangs.
After my first attempt failed with a clogged nozzle I reduced the temperature to 190°C because I read that lower temps work better with wood filaments. Pretty sure I should have also reduced the print speed, but at 24 hours this already took long enough. Had quite a bit of extruder skipping and the infill looks quite horrible, but the model is mostly hollow anyway and the shells printed perfectly, so I'd call it a success :D
I can't believe I have never thought to print things for model train setups..... My Grandpa is about to gain a lot for his track haha
That's awesome, please share what you make :) If you print the walls flat for manual assembly like a kit and without a raft, it might even be efficient. Printing vertically I ended up wasting a lot of filament on supports and infill (even though it's hollow, the walls still have some thickness to them), but I am bad at glueing and feel like I wouldn't have been able to achieve the same level of detail with manual assembly :D
