Make #25 - Super Secret Cracker

youmagine

We're providing a 'Starter Test Kit' to fine-tune your machine before embarking on the full build process. First, check your bed adhesion, bridging, retraction, and slicing for intricate features. Print at a layer height of ~0.3mm with 2x shells (/perimeters) and 2-5% infill (although it should be self-supporting at 0%). Each cracker requires approximately 34g of material (~4m of 3mm or ~12m of 1.75mm filament). The Crackers are printed in a variety of gorgeous Faberdashery colors, including Robot Silver, Pearly White, Space Marine, and Mercury Red. To prevent damage, gently ease the Crackers off the build plate to avoid breaking them prematurely. We recommend using Mole Grips (or equivalent) at the base to carefully remove the finished Cracker. For an ultimate festive finish, print in two colors by changing filament at 30mm and 70mm layers (use Z-Pause if your machine supports it). There are three different surprises inside each cracker, all of which print-in-place. Once you've pulled your crackers, turn the ends around, string them together through the special holes, and hang them on your tree as a cracker decoration! Faberdashery is releasing daily seasonal designs for you to print and enjoy. Join in the fun with our 25 Days of Making! http://www.faberdashery.co.uk/25-days-of-making/. This is Make #25 of 25. Seasons greetings from everyone at Faberdashery!
