Buildable Dog House v2 (w/ porch)

thingiverse

Scaled up (Scad files utilize actual sizes), I amplified a five feet by three feet dog house to roughly seven and a half feet tall. Since the lumber (presumably in imperial units) is used predominantly throughout the USA where I reside, my designs remain primarily in these measurements. A work in progress, this project is specifically designed for my beloved canine companion! In the near future, additional components will be integrated: side panels to complement its exterior appearance, ornamental moldings for a polished look, a feeding area within its confines, a storage compartment to safeguard valuable items, and an open porch adjacent to its main entrance. Each Scad file contains precise measurements necessary for crafting the fully-sized canine abode. During initial revisions, I predominantly converted these units from imperial to millimeters; however, it was subsequently determined more convenient to utilize the imperial system of measurement instead (by applying a simple multiplication factor), thereby rendering dimensions consistent throughout – be they represented as millimeters or their corresponding conversions multiplied by 25.4. Consequently, certain files may appear inconsistent, featuring either metric units directly or results derived from converting said values by multiplying them by this aforementioned conversion factor. Noting the context of my endeavors (i.e., it serves as my inaugural attempt at a woodworking project), progress appears auspicious. One can feasibly downscale the individual Scad file components, proceed to physically print each piece separately and then reunite these segments with an application of adhesive.
