Christmas Reindeer kit card

cults3d

I designed a 3D printed Christmas (Holiday) card with reindeer models that are flat-packed for easy postage. The models snap together easily after being released from their supportive frame. This project was completed for Christmas 2015, when I had A6 traditional cards professionally printed and attached 3D printed reindeer models to the front of each card using micro glue dots. You might need to adjust your printer settings to ensure a seamless assembly process. The tolerances are extremely small, so fine-tuning is essential. The STL file includes all the 3D renders used for the fronts of the 2D printed cards and vector graphics used for the insides, including instructions. A bonus laser cutting version is also available due to popular demand. This design fits an A6 card front and uses 1.5mm ply stock. The four layers/colours have distinct cut styles: Red: Use standard settings for this material. Black: Employ dot mode with a 0.3mm interval and 10mm dot length to allow the recipient to assemble the model. Blue: Opt for light cuts/etching, which is faster and requires lower power, to draw details and instructions. Green: Utilize dot mode with a 0.2mm interval and 50mm dot length to separate cut cards from cutting stock. If you encounter any issues, please let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to assist you.
