Cement Facility - N scale building kit

prusaprinters

<p>I have a future scene on my lower level that is a single track siding. I stumbled on this cement industry siding on Google Maps in Oregon. I used TinkerCad to design the pieces. My goal with this project was to see if I could print a "kit" building that could be assembled, rather than a building that prints as one unit. In the final pics, you can see how it all came together.</p> <p>For printing, you'll need<br/> 1 x Roof<br/> 1 x Silos<br/> 2 x Walls<br/> 7 x I-Beams<br/> 12 x Cross Braces<br/> 1 x inside building</p> <p>Optional:<br/> 2 x I-Beam assembly jigs, to assist with spacing evenly while gluing.</p> <p>Printing/supports:</p> <p>Roof - I got best results printing the roof on end, standing straight up, using a large brim for stability/bed adhesion. Printing it flat resulted in too much support material to clean up afterwards and it looked sloppy inside the building.</p> <p>Inside Building - didn't use supports, my printer was able to span that size. But, you can use supports if you want.</p> <p>Silos - will need supports for the ring part way up.</p> <p>Everything else was printed flat on the bed, no supports needed.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Unassociated tags: building kit, cement building, model railroad, model trains<br/> Category: Buildings &amp; Structures</p>
