Making a Human Scale LEGO Stud Launcher - Will it work?

The iconic LEGO Stud Shooter upscaled and 3D printed to human scale. I have made the 3D printable files available for free
Conclusion: 3D printed PLA parts does not work as well as molded ABS parts due to friction and worse clutch force. Also for the big print the extra weight became an issue. The small prints did shoot reasonably well and do look nice on the keychain

Thanks! Cool! If you need to print real size bricks I suggest looking into resin printing. It is a bit messy, but the level of details on the prints are so much better than filament. Resin printing is the way to go when it comes to miniatures at least. You can get a good resin 3d printer for about 200-300USD and up
