3D Printed GIANT 1X1 LEGO Brick Coaster (including Files!)
I started by by researching the scalable size of a lego 1X1. I found a scale sizing and used this sizing until the end where I reduced the depth to use less filament and look better. This is the mug I modelled around with a 9.5cm base.
Supplies
CAD software in this case solidworks
3D printer (QIDI tech X-Plus)
Modelling in Solidworks
I then took these measurements into solidworks and modelled a basic 1X1. I then imported the logo to trace using the path tool. Once this was done, I extrude cut it into the top. Finally, I added a small lip around the edge to stop my cup from sliding off.
3D Print Time!
I then saved my model as an STL and imported it into the QIDI slicer following these settings:
0.3mm layer height
5% infill (would recommend higher)
and whatever speed your printer can run
My total print time was 4 hours.
Finished!
The final model looks and works great! Fits my mug with 9.5cm bottom radius perfectly so scale around that.
