Montini Hercules Relief (Lego Compatible)

cults3d

I created this votive relief to Hercules using individual Montini building blocks. The Montini model was made by me and sliced to fit as a relief on a wall of bricks. Original artwork scan: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-votive-relief-95816 Montini building bricks were produced from 1961 to 1969 in the Netherlands. They were originally made from soft, pliable polypropylene. The diagonal fins bend slightly around the pips of the other block. http://www.puppenhausmuseum.de/montini-bausteine.html These are optimized for a 0.4mm nozzle. They fit together by friction, so precise tolerances are crucial. Please don't mix these with original Montini parts. PLA is much harder than the original bricks, and the layer ridges act like sandpaper. You'll wear out the original Montini bricks very quickly. Before printing, check that the infill angle is across the diagonal fins. That will prevent sagging of the first layer of the top plate that has the pips.
