- yodon 9y agoIn principle, yes, in practice, no. The tolerances and surface quality achievable are far below what you require and expect when connecting or even just holding or looking at Legos. As ubiquitous as Legos are, they're among the highest tolerance, highest quality rigid plastic parts you're likely to encounter.
- Raphmedia 9y agoWhat about printing an entire model and not the pieces? In other words, could I "build" models with that software without any knowledge of 3D modeling and use those models to 3D print?
- app4soft 9y agoPrint model consisted from many parts (bricks) directly is little complex task. Think, you need export model from LeoCAD in some 3D mesh (obj, stl or 3ds) and then need make some optimization (remove hidden faces, etc.) But there is "ImportLDraw" addon for Blender, so its better create feature request to its developers https://github.com/TobyLobster/ImportLDraw https://github.com/TobyLobster/ImportLDraw
