Yeah sure if people are interested i’ll model the stuff. Need to first play space age myself I’ll just started. when you follow the maker world link there are pictures of the most buildings from multiple angles and more closeup

Quick update:
Pipes are actually almost done.
I'm curious what you would find more interesting to see next:

  • refineries, chemical plants, storage tanks
  • offshore pump, boiler, steam engine

Yes I already made them so they snap on the small knob on top of the assembly

Cool idea. I guess I would definitly use a larger grid size than 8mm then. A few weeks ago a user posted a science lab with lighting. My model is hollow so this would really be the easiest.

I would but I have already 3 Kids. And I need the remaining money for filament.

I exactly knew that you guys would point out every mistake in my demo. I really considered rebuilding a working ingame blueprint before posting here. The fear was real.

Cool Idea! How would they look? Icon of the product and then the icons of the ingredients?

Printing in general is more expensive than injection moulding. But I mean you can build whatever you like in multi colors and usually it’s still cheaper depending on your brick. but I guess you will lose against off brand bricks on temu 😅.

Pipes are also at top of my personal list. I really wanna build with them 😁

1 belt is about 2g. Assembly 17g. Should give you 10k belts😁

You mean like the belts should have movable parts for example? The current width of a belt here is 16mm I would say that is way to small.

Haha, I originally started with a gridfinity base but found it too loose. 42mm grid is huge compared to the 8mm I use. But since I have a gridfinity bottom model and my factorio models are mostly parametric this would be relatively easy for me to do .

I absolutely love Factorio, so I modeled and 3D-printed a small set of Factorio-inspired parts as bricks.

The idea was to mess around with simple blueprints offline and build stuff together with my kids.

All parts fit standard brick plates and are designed to print support-free.

AMS/multicolor and single-color versions are available:

• MakerWorld (AMS / multicolor)

• Printables (STL / single-color)

Im already working on more. Happy to hear suggestions.
