About this print
A birdhouse modelled on the Death Star from the Star Wars franchise. It is designed to house small garden birds and doubles as a decorative garden ornament with a recognisable science fiction theme. The model can be scaled to suit different bird species. ASA is a suitable filament for an outdoor piece of this kind, as it handles UV exposure and moisture better than standard PLA.

This was my entry for the Birdhouse Challenge competition http://www.thingiverse.com/challenges/birdhouse - its a home for a millenium falcon
The STL files print a sphere 100mm in diameter. Suggest scaling up to the size you need - the full size is 160km diameter - make sure you cover the thermal exhaust port after printing
There's also a version remixed as a christmas tree ornament here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:117733
Solidworks source files are included - go nuts!
Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
Printing Death Star Birdhouse
For Death Star Birdhouse we would normally reach for PLA — it is the easy, economical default and suits the majority of models. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
