###Not to be Sold **I'm sharing my files so that you can make them for yourselves or give them away as gifts. I hope you enjoy them. I do not authorize sale of my work by anyone. Please don't ask me.** ###What is it? This is a topper for small to medium Christmas trees. It will work well on trees that are anywhere from about 4 feet (1.3 meters) up to 7 feet (2.3 meters) tall. This is part of my [Christmas Collection](https://www.thingiverse.com/dazus/collections/christmas-collection). ###Challenging Print If you just got your first 3D printer and are looking for your first thing to print, this isn't it. Using the settings I recommend below, an experienced maker should be able to get a good print without many failed attempts. However, if you are not intimately familiar with the detailed settings in your slicer, add this to your favorites and come back when you have a little more experience. If it's frustrating, it's no fun. If you're looking for an even bigger challenge, try my [Open Lattice Christmas Tree Topper](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5604710). ###Common Problems Printing Assuming you use the print settings I recommended below, here are some common problems and possible fixes: *Comes off bed:* Increase brim/raft size. Reduce print speed. Add more supports. *Print looks rough:* Reduce print speed. ###Print Time With my settings, it will take 12-15 hours depending on the exact support and build plate adhesion settings you use.
