Crater Lake Scale Model

The first model of a series of geographic replicas, I present to you: Crater Lake.

Crater Lake is the deepest and clearest lake in the United States, formed by the collapse of a volcano 7,700 years ago. It is the main attraction of Crater Lake National Park in Oregon, where visitors can enjoy its stunning blue water, scenic trails, and islands

Print Files:

• Full_CraterLake: the full model of crater lake as an stl
• Land_CraterLake: just the main scanned land part, no base or title
• Base_CraterLake: just the base and title for the model, no land

Print Settings:

• Any layer height should work, ideally a multiple of 0.1
• 15-50% infill (I use Cubic)
• 0.2mm initial layer height (anything over your main layer height)
• No supports necessary
• Any speed that works for your printer. Standard speed for my P1S
• Print by itself or multicolored if you have that ability
• If you are familiar with the feature, use an adaptive layer height when printing the terrain to minimize stepping

Notes:

• As this is the first landscape in a progressive series, any and all feedback and makes are appreciated in the comments!
• Any requests for future landscapes? Put those in the comments, too!
