Louisville - 3D Miniature

3D printable topographic miniature of Louisville

Capture the beauty of Louisville's city landscape with this topographic miniature! This 3D model represents the geographic area around the geo coordinates 38.256, -85.757 (LatLng).

It is scaled down from a geographic area of around 2.817 km x 1.966 km to a 3D printable miniature in the dimensions of 170.5 mm x 119.5 mm. The scale from the geographic area (5.539 sq km) to the miniature is approximately ~16522:1.

The terrain is modeled from geographic data for realistic terrain representation. Ideal for educational purposes, architectural visualization, or as a decorative piece.

Included Frames:

• Dimensions of 190.70 x 139.70 x 9.50 mm, text Engraving "Louisville" with hanging holes
• Dimensions of 178.70 x 127.70 x 9.00 mm, no text engraving with hanging holes (fits A1 mini bed size)
• Dimensions of 190.70 x 139.70 x 9.00 mm, no text engraving with hanging holes

Recommended Print Settings:

• The provided print profiles provide specific (multicolor & single color) settings for the Miniature and the appropriate frame(s).
• The print profile includes two highly specialized print profiles "classic" and "arachne". For optimal results, use "arachne" (note: expect long slicing times).

Assembly:

• Gently put the miniature into the frame. Depending on your printer's calibration, that should be enough to hold the miniature. 
• If in doubt, use some super glue. For PLA, I use this glue* (thick variant). I experienced best results with glue that contains Ethyl-2-cyanacrylat.
• Hanging Holes: My frames always have a hole pattern divisible by 10 mm - for this miniature's size the "Hanging Hole Distance" results in 60 mm between holes.
