Easter Eggs

thingiverse

Here are some openSCAD Easter eggs experiments that bring a dash of whimsy to your prints. Made by joining two threaded hemispheres together with a half inch long hollow screw, these egg-shaped creations are sure to delight. One hemisphere is flattened to resemble the big end of an egg, while the other hemisphere is stretched to create a visually appealing contrast. With space inside the egg for a small gift, you can personalize your Easter eggs to fit any occasion. Simply decorated versions are included to get you started, but feel free to add your own flair with custom colors and designs. A version where the hemispheres are permanently connected is also available for those who like a more solid look. And if you're feeling extra creative, try decorating your eggs by changing the color of the filament while printing - it's a great way to add some personality to your design. For an added touch, a "little" one piece version fits snugly inside the larger versions, creating a fun surprise for whoever receives them. To see how these Easter eggs were created, take a look at the openSCAD code that brought them to life. The screw threads used in this project can be found at dkprojects.net/openscad-threads.
