A 3D model of the stack of software dependencies known from the xkcd webcomic Dependency by Randall Munroe.
This model brings this carefully stacked structure in to the third dimension.
I split the model itself into three parts which can be super glued together. This was to avoid issues with the bigger overhangs. For the smaller overhangs, I printed it with some supports, though it wasn't quite enough everywhere. The slightly droopy bits add a bit of the wiggly character of the comic boxes.
The base adds stability and also displays the works title in the characteristic hand of the comics.
I printed the model with 15 % Gyroid infill, 0.15 mm Speed in Prusament PLA pristine white and 3DJake ecoPLA Black.
