I was in search of something Independence Day/3D printing related to celebrate the 4th of July. It seems like a lot of people had the same idea. Thomas Jefferson……yup, he was 3D printed at RedEye on Demand. President Obama was 3D printed at the first-ever White House Maker Faire last month. So, after sifting through replicas of the Statue of Liberty or American Flags, I came across something really cool.
Designer Don Foley has created a very detailed model of the Ellis Island Customs House which you can download for free for the next 2 weeks.
His design is in 4 separate sections that can be taken apart to see the beautiful and intricate detail on each of the floors. It’s a beautiful design of a very important part of American history.
And just for fun, here is an interesting article about the creation of an exact replica of the Liberty Bell using 3D scanning.
Happy 4th of July!
