<p><strong>Celebrate your filament collection all year with this fun fun filament swatch model!</strong></p><p>Each bulb has a functional twist-in base that is a great functional print test, and you can use to secure them in the included display stand model. If you don't want to use the stand, there is a hole that passes through the base that you can use piece of 1.75mm filament, or other material, to string them around your workshop.</p><p>Each bulb also has a face to easily stick on a label from a label maker, or a piece of masking tape to handwrite your own. Campfered edges on the display stand model are also great places for labels.</p><p>Print the swatch with the base of the bulb (the twisty part) pointed downward. On a well calibrated printer you will need to use a small amount of supports around the base. &nbsp;I've attached a photo of what has worked well for me generated out of Cura using the default settings. &nbsp;Your millage my vary depending on how dialed in you have your printer. You may need to add more support around the base of the bulb.</p><p>Print time should be pretty good. The interior of the bulb is hollow and you should not need any infill except a minimal amount in the twist base. &nbsp;Around 34 min with .28 layer height on my CR10-S, and about 43 min using .2 layer heights.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
