Google Home Gnome

thingiverse

Inspired by Google's 2017 April Fools "Google Gnome" project at https://store.google.com/magazine/gnome The pieces just slide over your Google Home device. Unfortunately, functionality of your Google Home will be impacted: you can no longer see the lights on top, the microphones are under the hat (although I included a few holes to let the sound come through), and the touch surface on top (volume and stop) is no longer accessible. Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: Mini Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: Standard Infill: Default Notes: Print without support. There is a small overhang at the top of the sleeve where the ledge in the back has no support, but that can be ignored as it will be hidden by the hat. For a regular Google Home, only print "Gnome sleeve" and "Gnome hat". The sleeve just slides on - check for alignment of the mute button. Squeeze the hat a bit and insert into the top of the sleeve - no glue needed. For the small gnome, print all four pieces. I recommend black for the lower body, white for the upper body, blue for the sleeve (jacket), and red for the hat. Update 4/16/2017: I redesigned the small gnome body pieces to be hollow, and fit together with a snug fit, without glue. Update 8/12/2017: I uploaded updated sleeve and hat files for the small gnome. The original ones were too thin, creating some artifacts during printing. Update 2/3/2019: Refreshed the hat and the sleeve since I noticed that they didn't actually fit perfectly Post-Printing For the small gnome, consider gluing the hat on.
