I designed this Inarii Torii gate to be placed next to a bonsai tree to convey a sense of scale to the tree. I found an online carpentry course on the construction of a full size gate, which gave me the correct dimensions. If you're interested you can find it here: https://suikoushya.com/.

The gate is roughly 8 cm high and wide. Beware though, you will need a 0.2mm nozzle! With a 0.4mm nozzle you might be able to print most of the parts at this scale, I'm not sure. For the sign you will lose too much detail to still be able to read the Kanji.

To construct the gate you will need the following parts:

1 Toriii top (needs support)

1 Torii crossbar

2 Torii base

4 Torii leg (needs support)

2 Torii ring

1 Torii sign (optional)

a few toothpicks for assembly

To assemble the gate place the crossbar in between the four pieces of the legs. Then clamp the legs together with the rings at the top and the base parts at the bottom. Cut a toothpick in half and stick them through the holes in the base parts so the tip of the pick points downwards. Use two smaller pieces to connect the top part to the legs through the rings.
