<h3><strong>Print settings:</strong></h3><ul><li>Filament and temperature: PLA (gembird) 220°C/50°C</li><li>25% infilt, 0.12 layer</li><li>Without supports or raft.</li></ul><h3>Basic information:</h3><p>The first stl is model of the stone circle without inside cutting. You can cut the inside part base on your required diameter. The second file is pre-cutted model for electric candles that I used. I bought a pack of 6 candles from Alza (https://www.alza.cz/emos-led-dekorace-6x-cajova-svicka-bila-6x-cr2032-vnitrni-vintage-d6658811.htm?o=3) it cost something around 60 Kc.</p><p>Heureka =&gt; (https://vanocni-osvetleni.heureka.cz/emos-lighting-led-dekorace-cajova-svicka-bila-cr2032-vnitrni-vintage-6-ks/#prehled/)</p><h3>Parts needed for the campfire:</h3><ul><li>printed stone circle</li><li>electric candles</li><li>hot glue gun and fast dry glue</li><li>matches</li><li>nife</li><li>some colores (not necessary)</li></ul><h3>Step by Step:</h3><p>At the begining you will cut off heads from matches. For one camp fire I used around twenty matches. Then you have to remove cover from electric candle. For that I use scissors but it would work with screwdriver too. Now remove plastic flame from the cover and cut off two litle parts from the bottom of the flame (see the picture below).</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/113586/rich_content/96b98085-2860-465b-9e80-05d28791fa8a/remove2.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22af28cc22-0d86-4cb8-bed4-6f5d80d93c43%22%2C%22w%22%3A6320%2C%22h%22%3A3016%7D"></figure><p>Before you can place the stone ring on the candle you must remove few part that interferes.</p><figure class="image image-style-align-center"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/113586/rich_content/61d70a02-87e7-4557-843c-b43678299ae2/remove-min.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%223403a506-c2d5-4f3e-a1b1-adad62a6381e%22%2C%22w%22%3A6320%2C%22h%22%3A2896%7D"></figure><p>After that I paint the candle on black but that is not necessary. Now you can put the stone circle on the candle. Find the biggest stone and put it next to the switch. The switch must be in the middle position.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/113586/rich_content/470be505-d025-4a8c-947e-be88eda2b6a3/remove3.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2218320b6e-d26f-451b-b0e8-08ebe5a03b74%22%2C%22w%22%3A6320%2C%22h%22%3A3024%7D"></figure><p>!!! If you want paint the stone circle now is your last chance. After glueing all parts together the painting will be complicated !!!</p><p>Now you can start glueing match sticks. Before that put the plastic flame on the LED diod. With hot glue gun glue the stick on the stone circle and lean it on the plastic flame. Sometimes you would need to cut the sticks because they are too long. When you have stick glued allaround glue the upper match ends and plastic flame together. You can try to form a glue on top of the campfire as a flame.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/113586/rich_content/d1685e8d-0a41-4c71-899e-fbf4f1ca9752/img_0164-2.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%229d1ae755-63eb-41e9-8fb6-97678d6ced12%22%2C%22w%22%3A4031%2C%22h%22%3A1800%7D"></figure><p>You can also glue the plastic flame with the sticks from inside (not necessary).</p><h5>Painting:</h5><p>You can pain the match sticks to more imitate real wood. For the first layer I used brown color. Next, I painted the upper ends of the sticks, near to the flame, black. Finally I used a little bit of white on the end of the black layer to simulate ash.</p><p>Enjoy!!!</p><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/113586/rich_content/6de28615-7a24-4e28-bf33-aa32ff5c4fee/img_0165.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22b74304c6-76dc-4a56-a99d-993d74974b5d%22%2C%22w%22%3A4032%2C%22h%22%3A3024%7D"></figure>
