###Any suggestion is welcomed! Feel free to join my Facebook group to let me know what you want: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1115757609295068 ###Custom display base are also available from $5! Contact me to discuss what you want! ###If you like my work, you can support me through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/gigapenguin3dprints/posts Description ==================== The display is based on usual underground car park and partly based on NFS Unbound meetup spots. This display is designed to be modular, it is made up of 4 sections and the combined size is at 320x320mm. The large size is to maximize the amount of cars able to squeeze into the display while still realistic scale to 1/64. The display base is separated into multiple parts for easy printing and colour swap. All files are packed into a zip files and arranged in folder as follow: ###1) Base Folder - BaseLarge - Left.STL - BaseLarge - Right.STL - BaseLock.STL - BaseShort - Extension.STL - FlatBaseLarge - Left.STL - FlatBaseLarge - Right.STL - FlatBaseShort - Left.STL - FlatBaseShort - Right.STL - PillarV2.STL ###2) Roof Folder: - Ceiling - Large Base - Left.STL - Ceiling - Large Base - Right.STL - Ceiling - Short Base - Left.STL - Ceiling - Short Base - Right.STL - PinCap.STL - PinV2.STL - RoofCover - Large Base.STL - RoofCover -Short Base.STL - RoofFrame - Large Base - Left - no holes.STL - RoofFrame - Large Base - Left.STL - RoofFrame - Large Base - Right - no holes.STL - RoofFrame - Large Base - Right.STL - RoofFrame - Large Base - Single Piece.STL - RoofFrame - Short Base - Left.STL - RoofFrame - Short Base - Right.STL ###3) Walls Folder: - BackWall - Large Base.STL - SideWall - Large Base- Window.STL - SideWall - Large Base.STL - Wall - Short Base - Short Window.STL - Wall - Short Base - Short.STL - Wall - Shorter (For Alignment Issues).STL - Wall - Shorter Window - (For Alignment Issues).STL ###3a) Wall Connector Folder (Inside "Walls" Folder): - BackWallToBackWall.STL - ShortBaseWallToLargeBaseWall.STL - SideWallToBackWall.STL The following parts are optional: ###4) Extras Folder: - Numbers (For Pillars).STL ###4a) Front Cover Folder (Inside "Extras" Folder): - FrontCover - Center.STL - FrontCover - Left.STL - FrontCover - Right.STL ###4b) Pipes + Vents Folder (Inside "Extras" Folder): - CeilingPipes1 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes1.STL - CeilingPipes2 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes2.STL - CeilingPipes3 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes3.STL - CeilingPipes4 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes4.STL - CeilingPipes5 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes5.STL - CeilingPipes6 - Center.STL - CeilingPipes6.STL - Single-Pipe-Thick-9mm.STL - Single-Pipe-Thick-9mm-short length.STL - Single-Pipe-Thick-12mm.STL - Single-Pipe-Thick-12mm-short length.STL - Tri-Pipe Connector.STL - Tri-Pipes - Long.STL - Tri-Pipes - Short.STL - Vent - Large Base - Connector To Short Base.STL - Vent - Large Base.STL - Vent - Short Base - FrontCover.STL Print Settings ==================== Nozzle size = 0.5 mm (0.4 will be printable and smaller better) Layer height = 0.2 mm Filament change layer for colours on all non windowed walls: 1) Start (Overall background colour, mine is in white) 2) Layer 9 (Lower wall colour, mine is in teal) Assembly (Based on my photos build) ==================== The car is just placed on top of the display. Feel free to check out my assembly video to give you a rough idea on how the build suppose to go: https://youtu.be/2bxLJnSjIf4 ###Step 1: Base Build Print the following base and flat base: - BaseLarge - Left.STL (x1) - BaseLarge - Right.STL (x1) - BaseLock.STL (x7) - BaseShort - Extension.STL (x2) - FlatBaseLarge - Left.STL (x1) - FlatBaseLarge - Right.STL (x1) - FlatBaseShort - Left.STL (x1) - FlatBaseShort - Right.STL (x1) - PillarV2.STL (x4) Each piece of base are connected using "BaseLock.STL", use glue or tape to safely secure it. The flat base will be aligned after assembling the walls for easier alignment. ###Step 2: Wall Build Print the following walls: - BackWall - Large Base.STL (x2) - SideWall - Large Base- Window.STL (x1) - SideWall - Large Base.STL (x1) - Wall - Short Base - Short Window.STL (x1) - Wall - Short Base - Short.STL (x1) Print the following connectors: - BackWallToBackWall.STL (x1) - ShortBaseWallToLargeBaseWall.STL (x2) - SideWallToBackWall.STL (x2) The walls will slot into the connectors and aligned to the edge of the base. The flat base printed in step 1 can be placed into the base, the flat base will slightly tuck under the lower parts of the wall (teal part on the walls in my photos). The 4 pillars printed from step 1 will fit into the square hole provided on each flat base. ###Step 3: Roof Build Print the following roof parts: - Ceiling - Large Base - Left.STL (x1) - Ceiling - Large Base - Right.STL (x1) - Ceiling - Short Base - Left.STL (x1) - Ceiling - Short Base - Right.STL (x1) - PinCap.STL (x10) - PinV2.STL (x10) - RoofCover - Large Base.STL (x2) - RoofCover -Short Base.STL (x2) - RoofFrame - Large Base - Left.STL (x1) - RoofFrame - Large Base - Right.STL (x1) - RoofFrame - Short Base - Left.STL (x1) - RoofFrame - Short Base - Right.STL (x1) The ceiling parts will be glued/taped under the roof frame. The pins are use to connect each roof frame together. Do this to all 4 pieces of roof frame and ceiling then use pins and glue to hold all piece together. Once the entire roof structure is glued, the roof can be placed on top of the display. The roof will be supported by 3 sides of the walls and the 4 pillars. ###Step 4: Extras (Optional) Inside the extras folder, it is mostly just simple pipes to give the design a more realistic feel. Ceiling pipes are meant to stick flat on the ceiling, they are not very obvious in the complete build. Single pipes are the large pipes you see sticking out of the ceilings in my photos. If you are using ceiling pipes, I've modelled the right side of the pipes only. For the left side it will need to be mirrored in the slicer. The vents part is optional but I recommend glueing it to the roof. The vents piece can act as additional support to the the frame connections. ###Additional Info: If you wanted a smaller build, it is possible to build only the left or right corner of the car park. The building steps will be similar as above and the parts required will be: Base: - BaseLarge - Left.STL or BaseLarge - Right.STL (x1) - FlatBaseLarge - Left.STL or FlatBaseLarge - Right.STL (x1) - PillarV2.STL (x2) Walls: - BackWall - Large Base.STL (x1) - SideWall - Large Base- Window.STL or SideWall - Large Base.STL (x1) Connectors: - SideWallToBackWall.STL (x1) Roof: - Ceiling - Large Base - Left.STL or Ceiling - Large Base - Right.STL (x1) - RoofCover - Large Base.STL (x1) - RoofFrame - Large Base - Single Piece.STL Others ==================== Feel free to send me any feedback on how to improve the design.
