Scale model of the Solar System (remix)

thingiverse

This is a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1746153 I scaled up all the planets without changing the base size because I thought the original model was too large for my workspace at work, so I increased everything (including the sun) by 30% and rearranged the positions to ensure it would still fit and look good. I also thickened the rings slightly to reduce the likelihood of them failing during printing. I did this so I could print the entire thing at less than 100% without the smaller planets looking bad, and I removed the moon and text for a cleaner appearance. Edits were made in Blender and I am not a modeler, so the model is far from perfect, but it didn't cause any issues when slicing in CURA. The image was printed on my Ender 3. Unfortunately, I didn't turn on "Not in Skin" for the combing setting, so there are lines on top. Otherwise, it came out pretty well. --- EDIT 9/11/2019: A cleaned up version of the model was added that is just a combination of the base-only and planets-only model so now the planets part of the mesh doesn't penetrate the base but sits nicely on top. By request: - A base-only model was added - A planets-only model was added
