Lego Minifig Display Brick 3D Printed
This 3D Printed Brick is perfect for displaying your prized minifigs. Each display brick is 3D printed and includes real building brick plates for mounting your minifigs. The bricks can be wall mounted with hidden-screw slots in the back. The bricks stack and interlock so that you can build structures with them including structures that turn 90 degree corners. The bottom of each brick is compatible with Lego Duplo studs as well as other brands of the same size.
- Compatible with lego minifigs, lego classic, and lego duplo
- Wall-mountable with no visible fasteners
- Stackable/Buildable
- 3D printed
If you don't want to actually make this and would rather just buy one that is already made, you can do so here: Minfig Stackable Display Brick For Lego Minifigs
Supplies
Print the STL File
You can find the Model Here: Lego Minfig Stackable Display Brick
Print at 15% infil at a speed and temperature appropriate for your machine/material. Dimensional tolerances may vary by machine and printing type. The original model was configured/adjusted to print well on my cheap FDM printer. Print with the back face (the one with the mounting holes down) and use supports for anything over a 75% overhang.
Glue in the 1x1 Lego Plates
Glue in 1x1 or 1x2 lego plates using a small amount of superglue or clear gorilla glue. I use 1x1 because they are cheaper. You can buy them here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086M8LZK3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
Since the 1x1 lego plates are so small and hard to handle, I found it helpful to first place the plates into a lego brick (1 used a 2x8 Brick). Then I would use that brick to press them into place.
Mount the Brick to a Wall
Print the attached pdf and cut out the grey area on the dotted lines. You can use this as a template to mark on the wall where the #6 Head screws need to go to hang the brick
