This set of Montini bricks forms a relief showing the Mars Gale Crater, landing site of NASA Curiosity Rover. This model covers an area approximately 200km across.
Just like the vintage original Montini parts, these are compatible with classic Lego full height bricks.
Montini building bricks were produced from 1961 to 1969 in the Netherlands. They were originally made from soft, pliable polypropylene. The diagonal fins bend slightly around the pips of the other block.

Please do not mix these with original Montini parts. PLA is much harder than the original bricks, and the layer ridges act like sand paper. You will wear out the original Montini bricks very quickly.
I would love to see your make!

Printer brand: Prusa
Printer: i3 MK3
Rafts: No
Supports: No
Resolution: .15mm
Infill: 25%
Notes:
These are optimized for a 0.4mm nozzle.
They are friction fit parts, so tolerances are important. I set the Horizontal Shells Top to 7, and Bottom to 10 to allow for the relief to have infill, but the brick to be solid. In Slic3r PE set "Elephant foot compensation" to 0.07. This removes the ridge at the bottom of each block.
