Minecraft Topography

Join me on Twitter at twitter.com/MoceriMike to stay updated with my projects! Check out this video showcasing my creation: http://youtu.be/ewfHXNc3O08. I based it on Nudel_P's design from Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:15449). To add an interesting twist, I cut out my favorite part in Netfabb and used blue and green filament during the print. Using Jetty's firmware, I managed to swap the colors at a specific layer height. Additionally, I employed Mineways to export a model for 3D printing. This software lets you print your Minecraft creations by exporting them as an .stl file! To print my version, I used settings of .2mm layer height, 120mm/s acceleration, 10% infill, 1 shell, and maximum build size for my TOM printer. To achieve the desired two-color effect for the water and land, you'll need Jetty's firmware if you have a TOM or Cupcake. Simply swap filaments at the desired z position during printing, or pause manually and switch them out.
