Print-it-yourself 3d model file in .STL format. MacAulay Crest

Description

The 3d model files for a large format Clan MacAuley plaque for you to 3d print yourself, or have printed at a 3d hub or similar facility.

Clan MacAulay

Bears the motto " Dulce Periculum", danger is sweet.

The crest is comprised of a boot couped (cut) at the ankle and thereon a spur.   This is contained within a belt to form the badge commonly used by clan members and the septs associated with the clan.

Our range of large format Scottish Clan Crests would be ideal to mount in a frame,  perhaps with a tartan backing.

What you get

Purchasing this item will take you to a download page for you to retrieve the model file.   The ZIP file contains an .STL file with the 3d model.  The .STL format is very widely used in the 3d printing industry.  In the unlikely event that you need a different format,  we will happily do the conversion for you.

You will need some software and access to a 3d printer to make use of the file.

If you have your own 3d printer, you are all set.  If not, you could also make use of one of the thousands of 3d printing hubs springing up all over the world.  There is very likely a hub local to you.  Please note that you will need to pay additional fees to the printing facility to print the model for you.

 

As an added bonus, we are including a pack of scrolls that can be customized with your own text and printed out to compliment the plaque.  There are six scroll styles to choose from.  You get the Blender source file with full instructions to get you going in Blender, as well as each scroll style in .STL format for you to use with whatever 3d software you like.

Dimensions

12cm (4.5") wide x 16cm (6¼") tall and 1 cm (¼") front to back.

This item can be scaled to whatever size is needed,  the maximum size is only restricted by the build area of your 3d printer.  We have tested the prints down to 35% of the original size with a 0.4mm print nozzle.  The lettering still printed well at this size.  Smaller than 35% may risk losing definition on the lettering.

Printing Notes

We recommend printing with a high quality setting.

Due to the large base area, it is essential to start with a level build-plate.

If you have a heated build-plate,  set the minimum temperature needed to get good adhesion for the first layer.  When printing in PLA, we turn our build-plate heater off after layer 2, which avoids warping for the remainder of the print.

The model file provided is solid, i.e. not hollow.  This assumes you will be printing on a fused filament printer where you set the percentage infill you want in your software.

For some ideas on post-processing, see our post on creating metallic paint effects.
