Printed the city of Dallas

My son TJ II saw a 3D printed miniature of the city of Dallas and wondered if I could print it for him.  He had a link to the creators website ​​http://www.3dprintedskylines.com/  The creator was also kind enough to publish the design file n Thingiverse HERE.  Of course I wanted to print a really big model, around 18 inches from end to end. Scaling up the original model from Thingiverse was easy, but it was not easily chopped into seperate printable sized pieces, so I spent about 40 hours cleaning up the file.  I then seperated it into seven printable sized chunks and sent them to my X3REX modified Prusa i3 printer.  I also published my remixed design files on Thingiverse HERE.  After 48 hours and 38 minutes of printing and about 800 grams of ABS filament I have this really cool looking model
