Summary

NORTHERN ONLY

This is a segmented version Digital Sundial Cleansed by Margu, which was a cleaned-up remix of the original Digital Sundial by Mojoptix.

This version is simply a broken-up version of the Cleansed Sundial. It's segmented into four parts which allows for failure of one or more segments without the loss of the entire print. The first and forth segments are the most likely to be successful with the middle two prone to failure due to their many light blocking bridges. I've marked each piece to indicate the piece that it mates to with dimples. Match one dimple to one dimple, two dimples to two dimples, and so-forth. I've also added pegs and holes to assist in aligning the segments when you glue them together.

The first and last segments can be printed with .2 resolution whereas the middle two segments need .1 or .15.

My apologies as I only created the Northern Hemisphere.

How I Designed This

I imported Margu's cleansed sundial into MS 3D Builder and sliced it between the various digits and then used object cylinder creation for the pegs and the holes and used emboss for the identification dimples. I then saved each segment to a unique .STL file.
