# Brick Monorail
|
||||
|
||||
Parametric Lego-compatible monorail tracks, designed specifically for 3d printing.
|
||||
Two orders of magnitude cheaper than buying used.
|
||||
|
||||
Since the parts are made parametric, you can have any length or curve radius you want,
|
||||
but these are the original tracks you can replicate

## Printing
|
||||
|
||||
To be compatible with standard bricks, the following print settings are strongly advised
|
||||
|
||||
- Nozzle: **0.4**, this is equivalent to 1 LDU.
|
||||
- Layer height: **0.2** will also do. Refrain from using 0.15, since that does not cleanly divides the LDU.
|
||||
- Make sure your initial layer height is either 0.2 or 0.4!
|
||||
- Layer height: **0.2**, less than that is barely better and just causes more problems than it solves.
|
||||
If you want to go lower, it's advisable to use heights that satisfy `0.4 % h == 0` such as 0.1.
|
||||
- **Make sure your initial layer height is either 0.2 or 0.4!**
|
||||
- Supports: **yes**, normal, don't use tree supports.
|
||||
what you would call easy for the printer, so be on the lookout.
|
||||
- Set your "Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion" to a value that works for you, for example -0.2mm to compensate for elephant's foot.
|
||||
Alternatively, you can trim the extra plastic off by hand.
