This model is for use as a negative modifier in a slicer. It works something like reinforcement in concrete. You can try and print it, but it most likely will not work.
It is an 200 x 200 x 200mm array of 0,2mm diameter cylinders. When loaded as a negative modifier in a slicer, the software treats it as an array of tubes, and draws walls around it. As the individual cylinders are of the about the same size as a normal layer, and half a normal line thickness, you probably will not get a hole.
What you will get is a rod through the model you are printing, of around twice the wall number you specify, adding significantly to the strength. The best strength will be if the modifier is placed horizontally.
