Ye Ol' Homestead

Beschreibung

For years, I have wanted to build a scale model of my property. I even bought the artificial turf from a hobby store half a decade ago. I just never could find time to do it or the room in which to store a full scale, HO gauge, model. Enter the 3d printer. Using SketchUp to model the buildings and Google (gah... I hate the taste of that word!) Earth to model the terrain, I have recreated a relatively true-to-life recreation of my homestead. The roofs of both buildings are removable to show the interior floor plan. I have created this so that 1 scale mm = 1 foot in reality so that the terrain could be printed on the limited bed of my Tarantula. The buildings themselves, however, could very easily be scaled up for use in a model railroad layout, which I intend to do once I get my own layout started.
