My House using sketchup

thingiverse

I'm a designer by trade and not an engineer, so I took some liberties when designing the model. Though the Windows and Doors are pretty close to scale for I did measure them pretty accurately and I did as best as I could in spacing them by using actual measurements of my house. I only printed this out at normal settings with the supports turn on, I'm basically a newbie when it comes to 3D Printing and hopefully as I make more models the easier it will be to print them out. Print Settings Rafts: Yes Supports: Yes Resolution: Normal Notes: I scaled it down to 60% after it scaled down to fit on a Makerbot 5th Generation printer and it roughly took 10 1/2 hours to print(make) the 3D part. Post-Printing I used supports so I used an Exacto Knife to carefully clear away the supports, this is my first time using a 3D printer, so hopefully I'll get better in the next models that I design.
