Customizable Holiday Ball

prusaprinters

<p>In the spirit of coming holidays...</p> <p>(customizer rendering is VERY SLOW, read below)</p> <p>You can customize number of curves, height and width of the ball (in mm).</p> <p>The curves smoothness parameter (USE IT ONLY when you done with other parameters) to define how smooth the curves are. BUT with the smoothies definition (60) the rendering will take A LOT OF time (curves = 12, curves smoothness = 60 - took me 20 minutes to render in OpenScad).<br/> Therefore I attached few STL files for you.</p> <p>I don't think support is needed but because of very small footprint the object disconnected from the bed mid-print even with brim of 4mm. I added support (touching build-plate) with overhang angle=60 and removed most of them with support blocker in Cura (see Cura screen-shot).</p> <p>Printed on Anet A8 with 50 mm/s speed and 0.2 layer height. Probably on better printer it will be printed smother.</p> <p>Any suggestions/comments are welcome.</p> <p>Edit: fn parameter didn't work in customizer, replaced it with curves_smoothness and reuploaded scad file v2.1</p> <p>Enjoy</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Anet A8</p> <p><p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p><p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2</p></div><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Nothing special PLA White</p> </p></p> Category: Props
