Math-hatten a 3D model city for STEM projects

thingiverse

Welcome to Math-hatten! We built this city! (cue the music). 8/15/2019 Update: I've remixed so that 4mm x 10mm map magnets can be used to assemble tall buildings. So check that out before you start printing. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3812670 4/12/2019 Update: I've added "Radicial Hotel" parts and "Sculpture Park" parts designed by my friend and fellow 3D printing enthusiast Vic. The Innovator.stl file is a part of the sculpture park. This city was built by me and my colleagues to use as an obstacle/navigation course for the TI Innovator Rovers. These TI-Innovator Rovers are little robots programmed in TI Basic on the TI 84/83 CE and Nspire CX line of graphing calculators. They're a ton of fun to play with and great for teaching STEM skills. If you're in the Baltimore area around March 8th to March 10th, come see the Rovers and Math-hatten city at the TI Teachers Teaching with Technology conference. The tall building sets: Buildings are similar to Lego building blocks. You can pin them together with Lego pins or little map magnets glued in place. Mix and match building tops and middle spacers as you see fit. Each print is no taller than 200mm, fitting on most average-sized 3D printers. Print at 0.25mm layers, 3 shells, and 10% infill. The stadium: To print the full stadium, you'll need to print two halves and click them together. Use glue if you want it to be permanent. Print at 0.25mm layers, 3 shells, and 10% infill. Houses and other structures: Print at 0.2mm layers, 3 shells, and 10% infill.
