Holiday Tree Ornament

pinshape

This holiday tree decoration can be hung from a tree, or simply used as a decorative item. Press an inexpensive LED light into the top and twist it on or off. If needed, use pliers to spread out the end (see picture). Link below to the LED lights I'm using ($17 for 60). Inexpensive LED Lights (Amazon link to the ones I used) I'm printing with Green Inland PETG here, but other filaments may also work well. I print it with my Da Vinci 1.0, flashed with Repetier Host and sliced with Slic3r. Settings: This is a solid model, so you'll need to use Vase Mode. In Slic3r, it's called Spiral Vase mode, and I use a .3mm layer height, 245C extruder temperature, and a 65C bed temperature. I've found that increasing the extrusion multiplier to 1.75 or even higher in Spiral Vase mode can be an effective way to improve surface quality and inter-layer strength.
