I had some missing LEGO bits, so I found the components on ldraw.org, converted to STL with LDView, and butchered them together with Fusion360.

In this case, I merged 3 parts into one, so I’d only have to deal with 1 interface instead of 5. The sanding probably made it worse.

    I know it’s not the point of the post but I still wanted to mention PrintABloks

    These are made specifically for 3d printing and I just think they’re cool and better for our community :)

    Due to the relatively small size and overall complexity/tolerances required for the object, I wonder how it would have turned out if done on an SLA printer.

    Wet sanding (with appropriate sandpaper) makes a huge difference, especially for smaller grid sizes.

    But it’s probably easier to just get some individual pieces from Bricklink.
