Lego© compatible TIE fighter & More

As my two daughters became increasingly enthralled by "Star Wars" due to its iconic Princess character, my older daughter desperately wanted a TIE fighter. My younger one soon followed suit, and I was happy to satisfy their desires with my quick and dirty 'Look Alike.' My younger daughter immediately transformed it into a Gandalf's home, while the older one converted it into a submarine. They both requested different colors, which I obliged. I encouraged them to share their creation with the 3D community, and here it is: a core module that can be combined with 'Clip Ins,' allowing for maximum versatility. As Christmas approaches, may the force be with you! Print Settings Printer: Da Vinci 1.0 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 30% Notes: Core Module: No supports All Plug-Ins: Need supports Wing rod and connector: No supports Hex-Wing frame: No supports Solar Panels: No supports... I suggest you begin by printing the 'Core Module' and the two 'Wing Plugins.' First, smoothen the 'Wing Plugins,' ensuring that the circular plugin ring is parallel to the layers in both opposing positions. This will minimize stress while clipping in. Next, smoothen the 'Core Module' circles and remove any imperfections from the circular groove using a small, sharp minus screwdriver. Now, carefully snap it into the core module by gentle pressing and turning. Repeat this process until all parts fit together perfectly without glue, assuming your slicer and printer are compatible with mine. If you encounter difficulties clipping in, stop immediately and ask for my support. The cylinder serves as a 'dummy load,' providing small structures time to cool down before the next layer.
