BLOQ4 CNC Miniature – 3D Printable Press-Fit Model

This miniature BLOQ4 CNC is a must-have for makers and machine lovers.
With its multi-color design, moving X-axis, and detailed look, it’s perfect as a desk model, gift, or display piece. Print it, snap it together, and enjoy your own CNC on a smaller scale!

Description:

This is a miniature version of the BLOQ4 CNC machine, scaled down to 30% of the original size and optimized for 3D printing.
The model is designed to be printed in three colors (black, silver/grey, and a contrasting color such as blue). For extra realism you can also print the front housing in clear filament.

The reduced scale preserves the key design features of the real machine while remaining easy to print on most desktop 3D printers. The parts are designed as a press-fit assembly, but please note that tolerances vary from printer to printer. Depending on your machine’s accuracy, you may need to slightly sand the parts or use a small amount of glue for best results.

Bonus: The X-axis is movable, making the miniature not just a static model but an interactive desk piece!
