Sylvanians invaded my house

  A few years ago, I 3D printed a fire truck. Well, a Rescue Squad truck, as my Sylvs don't get into much trouble at all. I was amazed that it did not fit well together, as the design did right in front of my nose. Dimentional accuracy is a problem in many printers. It was glued together and always very delicate to handle to clean, because it barely fit.  I thought about reprinting it with my new printer, till I spotted a Honey Bee Acres farmer's truck on Facebook. That was fun to revamp! Here's the result! Trying to get a firewoman out of my printed truck made it completely fall apart in many pieces. Since some parts, like the logo, did not come off, I did reprint several parts for it. I can print in multiple colors now, so that was an advantage. This was the start model. On the advert, it looked pale blue, but it was actually turquoise when it arrived. 2 spray cans of pearl acrylic, a chrome acrylic pen & printed parts later, it looks like a proper rescue squad truck!

I always study the "maps" which can be found on Sylvanian boxes, as they indicate ideas of possible future releases. On one map of a few years ago, I saw a large building, which sortoff made me wonder if that was meant as a Town Hall. In contrary to the usual pale buildings, this one was again more like the 80ties style in darker wooden colors. I liked the entire concept. Anyway, my hopes for it to become released have dwindled over the years. I created a help center, but it was too small for what needed to go inside, I wanted to move them into a decent sized building. Now that I have a fast new 3D printer, I figured that it was time to create one of my own and I wanted to keep the concept a bit of what I saw on the Sylvanian map.  Here's the front. I bought a cheap Parisian non- printable 3D model building a while back, without a rooftop. I also discovered a free mansarde roof. Both models needed a bit of work to improve them so they could be printed. Both were the tradi

I am in no way sponsored for any reviews. This is just my personal experience. My first 2 brands of 3D printers failed because of power failures in our village. Should not have happened, as printers are made to deal with those. Both Elegoo and Creality had an non-existing helpdesk and glad that Amazon refunded me. I was fed up and decided to buy an expensive printer which was extremely popular in print farms. In the 2 years that I had it, their helpdesk does exist, but was really usless to fix issues. They shipped parts to replace, then had the printed shipped back, and didn't fix it properly. It only printed so-so. I contacted their helpdesk again when all printing failed again and was actually THREATENED by email!!   At that point, it was clear that I would never buy a Prusa ever again.  I found out recently that I am not the only one who they did that to!! I told hub that there was only one thing left to before tossing it out to the garbage, which was to completely replace the n
