Description
They had been lost for days in the winding streets of the ruins. All the corners had started to look the same, or maybe that was them going round and round in circles…

What is the biggest size (cm or inch) of these parts?
Nicholas Jebson (verified owner) –
The largest section of the ruined quarters is 13.42cm x 6cem x 11.38cm.

What size have these files if I print them for 28mm? Dunno if they are too big for my printer.
Nicholas Jebson (verified owner) –
They are pre-scaled with 28mm miniature wargaming in mind, so no additional scaling is necessary

I’m printing Ruined-Quarters-Base-Opt2-v1.1 and Ruined-Quarters-Base-Opt4-v1.0 and they seem to have straight horizontal spans for the wooden beams. How are these going to print without supports on an FDM printer?

As they are a flat traverse, most slicers now have a bridging setting that allows them to print a flat line in the open air between 2 anchor points. The extruder keeps tension on the filament as it is extruded to stop its sagging. For instance, in Cura you can activate bridging by going to: Preferences- configure cura- settings and scrolling down to the Bridging settings under ‘experimental’ (though it has been so well proven now it should just be a function in its own right).

Thanks Nicholas! I actually found this setting last night after hours of head scratching!

No problem, happy to help.

I’m having difficulties successfully printing base options 2, 3 and 4. Due to the high amount of random shapes and detail on the floor part of the bases, my printer has to jump a lot from one point to another. This in turn means the filament gets retracted a bunch of times in a short time frame, which at some point during the print results in enough damage to the filament string to make it impossible to pull through gear rotation.
I have already tried messing with the gear tightness to try to prevent this from happening, but no matter how light the pressure is set up to, the constant retractions always manage to tear through the filament.

Hi Pedro,
Do you have z hop and retraction enabled? From what you’re describing it might be worth trying to print with them turned off and see if that helps. Or if you don’t have Z hop enabled give that a try aswell although that’s usually due to fix the extractor hitting parts of the model as it moves about.

Will these resin print without supports?
Jo Boorer –
I would recommend using supports when printing in resin

Hello,
Got this set and close to completing a good portion of the prints. i noticed this set does not have notches for ease of modular stacking and unpainted the levels seem to slide around alot i am concerned that they may fall while playing with the set. at this point i am contemplating glueing them. ( not a huge deal ) but wonder if you have a solution for prints of this nature.
i am still new to 3d printing and this could a result of a variant in the PLA i chose.

Thanks for pointing this out. I we add this to our model updates list.
