Coraline Dragonfly Pin

thingiverse

This quick dragonfly pin for the Coraline costume I'm assisting with was created using CAD and textured crudely with meshmixer. The original STEP file will be uploaded, allowing anyone to play with it (those with better meshmixer skills than mine are welcome to try). The file is small, so scaling 665x in the slicer when printing is recommended; otherwise, it's about 7.4mm wingtip to wingtip, which is far too small. To thin it out a bit, I pushed it down a few mm in Cura's build plate. Three files are uploaded for those who want to remix or re-meshmix this design since my attempt was pretty bad: dragonfly-MODEL.stp and dragonfly-OBJ-MODEL.obj. This is the one to print, but scaling will be necessary. I scaled one to 830x, resulting in a bit of a big pin with about a 2 1/2" wingspan; scaling to around 665x should produce a 2" wingspan. dragonfly-PIN-PRINT.obj I plan to glue a metal hair clip to this, paint it in gold paint, and glue some sequins on it. This will remain a work in progress until completed, but there's not much that can go wrong. I recommend printing at 0.1mm resolution.
