Julian thanks for trying it out anyway! i think the errors might have occurred because it was just a sketch up model. usually i resurface the model using cad span to make it watertight but this time i didn't. if i thought of doing this sooner i could have made a better printable model.
thanks!

@Shibboleth, my understanding is that it's a shell, with the material on the inside being support material.
12hrs sounds like a bit of a marathon! and it would be 24hrs since it would be 2 models. i'm happy to pay the material/time costs associated with that, which i'd assume to be in the hundreds... But would you be happy doing it? i don't want to place undue stress on you.
here's my email:

i'll make a revised questacon with less detail for 1:500 at full size, ie 1:1 in sketchup. and a more detailed one as well.
just to clarify, 4 models in total, 1 questacon and extension @ 1:1000
and 1 questacon and extension @ 1:250.
i'm still working on the extension so won't have that finished for a few days. the questacon models i'll have done by 3pm tomorrow. also would 1:250 be too large

actually i think a 1:500 model that is a simple mass with little details would contrast nicely with a larger detailed model...

nice pics! the main building looks good, but like you said the finer details didn't make it. the top of the drum wasn't finished because of the blackout? i think 1:500 might be too small for the reprap. however in addition to a 1:1000 model of questacon and my extension i also need a larger models to show greater detail.
the scale of these can either be 1:500 or 1:250, my choice.
@ 1:250 the

Julian of course i'll pay you the cost to make a tester and for your time even if it doesn't work out.

hahaha omg! do you know how much that costs on a z-printer, try $80. that's made my day. although does it matter that the current model i sent is a hollow shell? should it be solid?
thanks julian!

Julian I just realized the dimensions you listed are slightly scaled up, were are originally 52.8mm by 82.2mm by 25.7mm.

here's the edited model, thicker columns, overhangs are separate from model so no 'scaffolding' required.
thanks guys, and thanks Julian for your speedy reply

those are the right dimensions. It's at 1:1000 in real life scale. is it possible to scale up or down from a fully sized model in sketchcup? to print it locally they need it scaled down so its 1:1000 in real life. the point note about the column thickness and overhang is noted, I'll remodel detract the the overhang a bit and thicken up the columns. is it OK that it's a shell?

Hi all!
I'm working on a hypothetical extension of Questacon in Canberra, and plan on printing a model of questacon and the extension. Would anyone be interested in printing my models?
I'll give the job to the best quote
i'll attached a 1:1000 model of questacon to give an idea of the model's volume; attached skp file because stl was too big. I know how much it costs to print locally on a z-p

I envy you guys at UTS. I'm in my third year of architecture at the University of Canberra. I want to revolutionize the way the students in design units make models. It is ridiculously expensive at my uni's workshop. this year its moved into the 21st century. it has a cnc router, laser cutter and a z corp powder based printer.
the laser cutter and router cost $2.00 a minute and the 3d printer c

could people please posts their results with jeremy's PLA? how it compares with other pla (from say the U.S or Europe)?
I'd also like to voice my interest. I'd make 1 kilo purchases fairly regularly.
P.S
Anyone reprapping Canberra?
