"Its a relaxing Hobby to have really. I sit and design a few things"

My brother acquired a printer and he is keen to design some items. He is by trade a draftsman and I was wondering what design program you use, so I can pass that information along to him.

Thanks.

I have been commenting on your original post about 3D Printing Files,
I use CAD to design my stuff.

depending on what printer etc he is using less detail is better. I went too much detail and the printer couldn't handle it.

Thingiverse has great ideas on it and great Free files. Although because they are free some of the quality is not that great.

If you need any help or that please feel free to PM (it is the fastest way of getting me).

Clever stuff, the way forward I think.

I do agree that 3D Printing is the way forward. You are able to print your whole table top at fraction of cost. although the initial set up is expensive but over time the printer will start to pay for its self.

P.S. Sorry Dad, seems like I have hijacked your thread.

Due to the popularity of these buildings, I am willing to print and post them to people within the UK (for a price) if there are people interested in this please PM me.

I'd be definitely interested in the Church.  Just let me know the price and postage.  ;D ;D

Hami, I am in the US, but also interested.  If you choose to ship to the US, I would buy a couple of the A frames and I too am interested in a dark age/early feudal church.

I just got the church from Hami and i have to say it is very good. Crisp printing with no printing lines or similar.  I will be making it up and painting it shortly and will post a pic in a week or two.

Highly recommended.

Ha! Most Dads make their kids mow the lawn! You'll be out there doing it while he's busy designing and printing these awesome pieces!
Excellent work!

Impressive to see a full village like that, well done!

Thanks guys, really appreciate the positive feedback. its my first ever 3D printed village that I designed (there will be more just looking for ideas at present).

My Dad will have a view more buildings next time I visit him, I  have currently been working on a Barn (designed and printed), Chieftain House (designed and will be printed this weekend/week) and I am about 60% way through designing a fairly large Romano British Villa for him. o_o

If interested in any of the prints please feel free to Message me.

Having acquired a one of the models, I promised Hami that I would post a picture when I had completed the painting. 

This is his 3d printed church re-purposed for late Roman or Arthurian Britain.
