KLEIJNE Modular Fingerboard Ramp & Planter

thingiverse

My KLEIJNE Fingerboard Planter submission for the Tinkercad x MyMiniFactory contest. UPDATE: It won! The printer I won with it will probably go to my niece and nephew, further spreading the fun! This is a modular grinding bench and rail that you can stack up low or high by adding more or less mid sections. By alternating their orientation, a nice brick pattern is created, giving the bench a genuine look. If you choose to add more mid sections, you can use the little pegs to connect the lower parts and up the height of the grind rail. In the middle, there's space to plant something small, like garden cress, matching the fingerboard scale for that extra special touch. The Fingerboard Planter also has growing potential with an extra hole in the base for mounting possible future add-ons. You can simply use one of the pegs as a base for that. I wanted to give the rail a round look but make it printable and sturdy, so I flattened the sides. This gives you the opportunity to print it lying flat without supports and with maximum strength to withstand aggressive landing and grinding. Unfortunately, my build plate is very small (Monoprice Select Mini), so I could only print a micro fingerboard version as a prototype. However, it should prove the concept just as well. Maybe I'll use that first prize! My printer also got a major clog, preventing me from making a nice print in more realistic colors. So, unfortunately, I have to post quick 'n' dirty test run pics to submit on time. I'll post better pictures soon. I hope you like it, and please build onto and remix the hell out of it! If you do or just printed this one as is, I'd love for you to share it. Happy boarding!
