The 3D printed English Row House is a detailed architectural model that includes all the internal floors and walls. When printed at a 0.4x scale, it will fit on a 200 by 200 mm printer. The model can be printed in one color, or multiple colors. The roof is removable along with the second story floor and walls. I’ve also included a set of roof holders to help with gluing the roof sections together. Some sanding may be required to help fit the parts together.See the attached PDF instructions for printing and assembly.
Check out my video of the completed model on YouTube:

I drew the original model in feet and inches. The resulting STL file gets scaled down 25.3 times in the slicer. When slicing at 0.4x scale, a 1:64 scale model is produced. Here is a list of railroad scales and slicer scales. One of my photos show the S, HO, and N scales together. Comment if you have tried any of these out.
G 1:25 1 slicer scaling (no scaling)
O 1:48 0.53 slicer scaling
S 1:64 0.40 slicer scaling
HO 1:87 0.29 slicer scaling
N 1:160 0.16 slicer scaling (too small for interior or window frames)
For some reason not all the images are coming in correctly in the preview area. Rest assured, all the files are in the Thing Files list. Let me know if you have any ideas on how to fix the preview area.
