Christmas house blocks

thingiverse

I've Finished the Christmas Blocks Project! Some blocks that will eventually form the word CHRISTMAS are being developed in a current work-in-progress phase as I design an optimal method for printing them. Files remain attached so you can combine and match what you prefer to use. Testing with solid blocks, hollow blocks that allow visibility through, and blocks where letters are only slightly indented into the front surface is taking place. Update: Solid Blocks Have Been Abandoned in Favor of Hollow Ones The easiest block design to print without support or excessive material appears to be the hollow variety with the letter embossed on the front. To get started, simply print each individual letter (including two S's) and view them in a picture where I have scaled up things by 20% due to their initial small size. Next, proceed to print out all roofs. The one with the chimney doesn't need support since its pitch is only 45 degrees and will not experience overhang problems when printed flat.
