The National Monument to the Founding Fathers is a statue located in Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States. It was dedicated in 1889 to commemorate the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock in 1620. The statue was sculpted by William Wetmore Story and depicts figures such as William Bradford, Miles Standish, and John Alden. The statue is made of marble and stands at over 28 feet tall. It was one of the first national monuments to commemorate the country's founding and remains an important symbol of American history. The National Monument to the Founding Fathers serves as a testament to the ideals of freedom and democracy that the Pilgrims sought when they first arrived in the New World.

PRODUCT CARE
Washable in lukewarm soapy water.
3D PRINTING
This is a 3D printed product, so there may be minor defects (rough edges, bumps, etc). I have spent months building my own machines to exact specifications for accuracy and surface quality, and I scrutinize every model very closely. I use only the highest quality filament to ensure colors are vibrant and defects are kept to an absolute minimum for both your item and my machine. Every item in my shop is test printed and checked for not only aesthetics, but also the intended use. If I'm not happy with it, it doesn’t ship. You will get my very best work, which you will find is a cut above the rest!
POLYLACTIC ACID (PLA PLASTIC)
Every item in my shop is made from Polylactic Acid (PLA), which is a non-toxic organic thermo-polymer made from corn starch or sugarcane and is industrially compostable under very specific and expensive conditions. It will not break down if buried or submerged in water and will last for a very, very long time. 3DPD makes every effort to repurpose and transform waste plastics such as support material and failed prints. One example of this is that our PLA waste is ground up into shards and suspended in the filled and premium bust product lines. Additionally, in-house colors such as black make use of a small percentage of waste plastics to recycle them. Anyone that makes the claim that PLA is “eco-friendly” or “biodegradable” is simply misinformed and has copy/pasted the erroneous marketing materials made available by the manufacturers. 3DPD will aspire to reduce, repurpose, recycle, or upcycle its waste streams and prevent as much material as possible from being sent to the landfill, and a portion of your purchase will be used to fund this ongoing research and development.
