Welcome to Mod Christmas, the best modular 3D printed Christmas Village.
What Is Mod Christmas?
Mod Christmas is a modular Christmas Village that interlocks easily with other baseplates to create your village. It consists of a few basic components listed below to create an easy assembly that requires no hardware. This means you don't have to get anything else besides the filament you use. The only thing you might want is some glue to keep a few small things in place, but the ecosystem works without it.
What Components Are Used For Mod Christmas?
Base Tile: The first component that is needed for Mod Christmas is the base tile. This is a 100X100mm base tile that everything sits on top of. There are holes on each corner to slot in the connector clips to attach multiple base tiles together. There are also cable runways in case you want to insert lights into the village.
Connector Clips: These are used to connect the base tiles together. There are ones to connect 2 Base Tiles and 4 base tiles together.
Cover Tiles: These are used to cover the base tile to make your ground. This can consist of Roads, Flat Ground, Pathways, and specialty tiles for buildings. This is the part you will see, not the base tile.
Buildings/Small Structures: These are what you think they are, the buildings. They stay in place with specialty cover tiles, where they sit inside a small hole, so they don't move around.
Small Props: These consist of people and small parts that sit on top of the cover tiles. Because of their small nature, these parts loosely sit on top instead of having a solid attachment to the cover tile.
How to Find the Parts You Want to Print?
When you are searching for the parts you want to print, the files are organized in an easy way. If you want to print a building, for example, you just find the folder that has the name of the corresponding building you want. Then you print all the parts in that folder to create the building. There will also be a folder for the basic cover tiles if you want roads or pathways. All specialty cover tiles are located in the folder with the structure they belong to. Specialty cover tiles will NOT be in the Cover Tile Folder.
What Printers Can Print This?
I am happy to say that I intentionally designed this so that if you want to print this on a single-color printer, you can do so without losing out on color variety. Most parts just have sliding rails or press-fit parts that keep it together; remember no glue is required. So even if you have an old printer, you can still have a vibrant village without having a multi-color printer. I also optimized the models to have the least amount of supports, but some parts still have to have them due to their geometry.
Assembly
Most of the assembly is straightforward, but I will still document how to assemble the parts below.

Lighting
If you want lighting, I have Offered Routing channels in the base tile to do so. Disclaimer: If you want light showing, you have to use white or close to white filaments; otherwise, it won't light up at all.
