So, next step on learning Fusion 360. It's getting better from day to day. .f3d and .steps file are partially included.
This is a 6 way gravitas tile. You can find a collection of insets here: https://www.printables.com/model/428828-gravitrax-insets-for-the-6-wayexit-basic-tile.
Changes to original tiles
This tile has 6 possible exists and hole for pillars. These are 29.7mm tall, which is exactly the height of three spacers. Plus 4.5mm on each end which goes into the tile. 4.5m makes it compatible with the base plate of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3750276. See the pics.
I do really like the pillars. IMHO they look great, elegant. And two for one story are enough. You don't need three! They should fit snug, but not to snug, they might break if you try to pull them out if they are too tight. So maybe you need to experiment a little bit with x/y scaling.
The three spacer height was chosen to work with various Gravitrax extensions. Again, see the pics.
There are two versions of the basic tile included: A "complete" one and a piece with a flat bottom which needs an inset that fits into the cardboard. Although this inset feels and is very thing and fragile, once glued to the tile it's pretty strong. Be aware: Printing should be very accurate for the flat one or you need to use some sanding paper. You will need a minor support for the flat one, too. But this is a minimal one.
Why two versions?
The one-piece-tile needs around 30 minutes only to print the necessary supports. And then the bottom surface is rough in the end. But it's easier to print. The flat one needs only two hours on my printer, the inset another 8 minutes. Print a couple of the insets at once and you're done much quicker.
As alway, have fun, happy printing and if you have questions simply ask.
