Mario's Star Coin

thingiverse

This is my inaugural project: a reimagining of Mario's Star Coin. I must admit that designing the star itself was a grueling task, but I'm utterly thrilled with the outcome! I originally created it to serve as a token for Monopoly's Gamer's Edition currency, but it also makes an exceptional collectible item for any die-hard Nintendo fan. For optimal printing results, I recommend orienting the design vertically and using buildplate support only where necessary. The star itself prints flawlessly without any additional support, resulting in a smooth finish. I've experimented with scaling down to 1/3 of its original size and found that it works decently well for tokens, although some minor details may be lost. So far, I've only tested PLA at 20% infill, but I'm eager to explore other materials and settings. Your input is invaluable - please don't hesitate to share your suggestions!
