Mothers day earring

thingiverse

This is a lovely little earring I created for my mom as a Mother's Day gift. Since she works in the ICU at a hospital, I thought a design that incorporated medical elements would be fitting. The result exceeded my expectations, thanks to some careful tweaking of settings. By increasing the number of outer shells from the default setting, not only did the print time increase, but the curves on the snake design are now visible both physically and in the extruder path used to create them - a subtle detail that becomes apparent upon closer inspection.
