DOWNLOADSummaryThese are the pieces of game to learn the traffic signs used in Switzerland. They are rather similar to those used in other parts of the world; however, the conventions may differ. It is thought as a game for 12 year old students. The board has not yet been created but an initial test with a "draft" was successful. All the pieces (except for the cars) are lego-compatible.
Printer: Felix 2.0
Notes: The pieces take between 35-50 minutes to print each. I used the SFACT slicer, the setting "normal quality 2" and I set the last 4 layers to be completely filled to achieve a better quality. The only piece that was printed with support was the car.
How I Designed This The traffic signs were originally downloaded as .svg files and modified with Inkscape to transform all the curves into lines. The files were saved as .dxf files and added to *.scad files. The code for the lego-compatible blocks was provided by our teacher during the course. The .scad files were exported as .stl files and the mesh were repaired with Netfabb Basic. To be able to print the pieces, the software Repetier-Host for Felix printers was used.
