Description

3D printable topographic miniature of Manchester - 🇺🇸 United States

Capture the beauty of Manchester's city landscape with this topographic miniature! This 3D model represents the geographic area around the geo coordinates 42.989, -71.465 (LatLng).

It is scaled down from a geographic area of around 1.975 km x 2.808 km to a 3D printable miniature in the dimensions of 119.5 mm x 170.5 mm. The scale from the geographic area (5.546 sq km) to the miniature is approximately ~16529:1.

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 139.70 x 190.70 x 11.57 mm, text Engraving "Manchester" with hanging holes

  • Dimensions of 127.70 x 178.70 x 11.07 mm, no text engraving with hanging holes (fits A1 mini bed size)

  • Dimensions of 139.70 x 190.70 x 11.07 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.
