I had some missing LEGO bits, so I found the components on ldraw.org, converted to STL with LDView, and butchered them together with Fusion360.
In this case, I merged 3 parts into one, so I’d only have to deal with 1 interface instead of 5. The sanding probably made it worse.

I know it’s not the point of the post but I still wanted to mention PrintABloks
These are made specifically for 3d printing and I just think they’re cool and better for our community :)
That and the creator of PrintABloks (3D Printing Professor) is a great and passionate dude
Wet sanding (with appropriate sandpaper) makes a huge difference, especially for smaller grid sizes.
But it’s probably easier to just get some individual pieces from Bricklink.
Might look better with a coat of primer and paint
Not really pirating IMO
If it was that easy, Lego would’ve gone out of business years ago

I’ve had the same experience. Not worth it and too much of a hassle to calibrate for proper snap.
Due to the relatively small size and overall complexity/tolerances required for the object, I wonder how it would have turned out if done on an SLA printer.
Yeah the tolerances on LEGO are high enough you really need a resin printer for good results.
How is the clicky-ness? Does it snap to regular LEGO well?
What did you print it with?
Ender 3 S1, with Klipper on a Raspberry Pi.
I wonder how it would turn out with a resin printer.
This is the way, if you want small details, FDM is not your choice.
