Furtive Shroud (Tealight holder - Voronoi)

prusaprinters

A hushed pattern, a well-kept secret, revealed only by inspiring light from within or from without.This tealight holder has a 3 mm shell, printable with 2 perimeters, and uses an infill modifier mesh to create a Voronoi pattern sandwiched between the perimeters - thus, you don’t need to worry about overhangs. A semi-opaque white filament reveals the infill pattern when light shines through the tealight holder. With Cura you can also get a matte effect (and hide seams!) using Fuzzy Skin with a normally glossy white filament. InstructionsPrints at 0.15 mm layer height with 2 walls and 100% infill everywhere except for the overlaps with the infill modifier mesh, where infill is set at zero. Specifically: PrusaslicerAdd furtive_shroud_shell.stl, then add furtive_shroud_modifier.stl as a modifier (right-click at furtive_shroud_shell.stl and select ‘Add modifier’ -> ‘Load...’).Print Settings:Layers and PerimetersVertical shellsPerimeters: 2Horizontal shellsTop solid layers: 0Bottom solid layers: 0InfillInfillFill density: 100%Settings for infill modifier:Fill density: 0% CuraAdd both models, select them, and: right-click - > merge modelsright-click: arrange all modelsright-click: ungroup modelsNow the models are properly aligned and we can choose settings for the modifier mesh. Select furtive_shroud_modifier.stl, click on the icon with the four items on the left-hand menu, and choose ‘Modify settings for overlaps’ on its top menu (third icon from the left). Then choose the relevant settings and set their values according to the following section for the infill modifier. Some settings might not be visible by default and you must add them manually via the ‘Select settings’ button.Print Settings:ShellWall line count: 2Top layers: 1Bottom layers: 1InfillInfill density: 99%Infill pattern: ConcentricExperimental (optional)Fuzzy skin: checkedFuzzy skin thickness: 0.15 mmFuzzy skin density: 5 /mmSettings for infill modifier:Wall thickness: 0Wall line count: 0Top / Bottom thickness: 0Top layers: 0Bottom layers: 0Infill density: 0 Project files are provided for both slicers for you to adapt to your printer and filament.
