A colleague of me challenged me to build a model of a little roadside chapel that is located near the village he is living in.
The chapel has a bend roof with a wooden back- and front side of the roof (facade) that is typical for the old Twents Saxon building style that is common in the eastern parts of the province of Overijssel.
These kind of chapels were in the past typically build at an intersection of roads, and a tree is planted nearby the chapel. This tree was usually an oak tree and is called the 'Kroezeboom' (Crossing tree in Twents dialect).

The design took me a fair bit of work but in the end it turned out to be a nice little building.
The model is best printed with a 0.25mm nozzle.

I printed the parts in the following batches:
Batch 1 - Baseplate. 0.25mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
- Baseplate.stl

Batch 2 - Walls and ceiling. 0.25mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
- Front wall.stl
- Back wall.stl
- 2 x Side wall.stl
- Ceiling.stl. 
The walls are glued on the baseplate and the ceiling is used to connect the walls on the top side.

Batch 3 - Roof. 0.25mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
- 2 x Roof.stl
- 2 x Wooden facade.stl
The roof is glued together and placed on top of the walls. The wooden facades should be placed a bit back so that the roof has a little bit overhang. Align the wooden facades with the timber sticking out of the front and back wall.

Batch 4 - Interior. 0.25mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
- Altar.stl
- 2 x Bench.stl

Batch 5 - Doors. 0.25mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
- 2 x Door.stl
I have glued the doors on pieces of clear plastic which I have placed in the doorframe.


Happy printing.
