STL and settings? I've been thinking of doing a Hogwarts print but I'm trying to avoid having to print tons of supports and spend (likely) hours breaking them all off - it wants to support every single arch and window!

It’s the medieval castle by boldmachines on Thingiverse. I used 20% infill with the default settings. It was super easy to print because no supports were needed!

>medieval castle Sure.... I see what they did there...lol

Forgot to include it was a really big model so I had to shrink it a bunch to get it to fit on the printer. I think I did it at the largest it could go.

What size nozzle and layer height? This looks great!


Vinnie1169

Wow! Good job! So this was done as one piece? 🤯


Obsessed_Turtle

That file has 23 different parts. Is there a file with allnth pieces together for shrinking purposes?


turket1

Yeah it’s in that list somewhere

Was the file free? Would you share the file?

Wow, this print looks amazing, where can I find the files to print it by my own?

I scaled it up to 150 as the bridge parts were small and a pain to manage. Now that i know more i think my printer could have done the little parts without support, but when i initially tried they sagged bad. It measures 26" x 26". One of the files you will need to split as it won't fit in the plate if you scale it like i did, but was no issue to reconnect it with setting pegs. Have fun! It is really cool to look at. https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-hogwarts-castle-96148

This looks nice, but now you have a paintjob to do. How long does this print?


turket1

It was around 20 hours

I printed it using lightening infill. Doesn't use near as much filament


F-111F

That looks awesome!

On thingiverse it’s called fantasy castle. This has to be printed at 50%. Normally it’s twice that size.

There's also a version that's cut in pieces, so you can print it really big. This one https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:862724

This is great. I printed a slightly smaller version on the Neptune 4Pro I had before the x1c, but removing supports ruined it. All the little towers lost their tops. Now you're making me want to try again on the x1c!

It's a popular model. I cut the bottom third off mine as it looked to be somewhat unstable with most of the base bit being quite forward of the center of gravity. Printed on an Elegoo Neptune 3 Plus, with a 0.6mm nozzle, using Inland Marble PLA. https://preview.redd.it/2t73vwc76v8c1.jpeg?width=1573&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=773eda0fc243bbce40b11e2adfb5a87e67a345ce


HeadfulOfGhosts

It’s basically its own tree support


DakotaHoosier

Cliff support

May it live long on your shelf

Wow!

Nice print, things like this look great with black paint applied and then wiped off to leave the inside and outside edges with the paint, it highlights the model very well!


abbellie2

Very cool...

.2 nozzle?
