The Hobbit - Book Nook (NO SUPPORTS)

thingiverse

I'm thrilled with how this one turned out, especially considering it's my first unsupported print design. One quick note: I didn't design Bilbo the hobbit; instead, I found him here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4031152. I edited his arms to move them downward slightly so that he could also be printed without supports. However, this requires you to print him on his head as shown in the attached image. You'll need to add a brim or support under his head just to hold it in place on the bed while printing. It's essential to note that Bilbo measures 8mm tall, making him quite small. To achieve detail, I printed him at 0.07mm layer height. One more note is about the hanging chain lamp: I added this after printing everything, so it's not attached to the model. Instead, it's printed flat on the bed without supports and then glued into place. As for the rest, all four sides are printed lying flat on the bed. I used a 0.2 layer height with 10% infill. Next, I painted and added LED's: there are holes in the side walls for small LED's for most lamps, excepting the hanging chain lamp. I glued the LED in place, then ran thin wires up behind the chain, along the roof, and out the back because it was added after. EDIT: I've uploaded the stairs separately as requested by someone; this requires your printer to handle bridging well. If it fails, you don't want to have to print everything over again for the floor – this separate part probably needs supports since the pillars don't all meet the ground. I've also uploaded the Blend file in case there's anything else people need separated.
