DesignCraft Building Blocks inspired by Minecraft

Build small or large scale models with these easy-to-print building blocks!

Instructions:

• Print at 0.2mm with 0% infill.
• Let your imagination run wild!

Tips:

• Tolerances will vary between blocks and connectors depending on the filament used. I suggest printing the connectors with a few different filaments and finding ones that work best with different blocks.
• The connectors were designed with grooves so you can use your fingernail to insert and remove from blocks.
• Keep needle nose pliers on hand for tighter tolerances.
• Every block does not need to connect to every other block. Create strips of blocks and then connect to another strip with just a few well-placed connectors.
• You can also stack sections without the need for connectors. The pictured tower has about eight stacked sections which are not otherwise connected.

Notes:

• The blocks used to make the pictured tower were all printed with PLA filaments.
• No glue, adhesives, or anything like that were used to create the pictured tower!
