Brier Island Lighthouse

thingiverse

This Lighthouse is based on the https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2687021 model (Thanks for Sharing!). I modified the original model to make it printable in different colors and used it as a Tinkercad exercise. The total print time was approximately 18 hours, broken down by file as follows: Building Base took 10 hours; Building Top, 2 hours; Light, 0.5 hours; Door, 0.5 hours; Fence, 1 hour; Roof, 2.25 hours; and Platform, 1 hour. To add a color switch to the Gcode file, simply insert it at the desired height. In my model, I used the following colors: Building Base - 46.4, 79.2, 110.2, 141.2; Building Top - 29.00. Note that this model's color height does not match the original Lighthouse. For reference, see: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2c/Brier_Island_Lighthouse_%281%29.jpg Some parts have guides to help with better positioning, while others are designed for gluing or fitting by pressure. The hollow structure allows for a lamp placement and potentially a rotating mechanism with a mirror. Next steps include adding windows and the metallic exterior structure. It's currently a work in progress. I thoroughly enjoyed building this model.
