I got a 3D printer for Christmas and I was hoping to expand my terrain options. I was hoping people would know where I could find files for the misc items found in an urban environment such as telephone poles, dumpsters, fire hydrants etc.

I tried Google but found a huge amount of information and none of it was what I was looking for. I tried model train websites but that wasn't as helpful as I hoped.

I'm using 28mm, and am willing to go from 1/48 to 1/60.

Thanks in advance.

I use Sketchup to design those things(because it is free)but files sometimes need run through Meshlab (again free)to convert format.

Search thingiverse.com for the items.

The trick/knack is to be able to 'rescale' items via an easy software package………!

Which of those scales would you prefer? What file formats does your printer accept? I could probably whip some basic stuff up tomorrow and upload it all to Mediafire as a ZIP'd file.
