Rooster - Celebrating Chinese New Year 2017

thingiverse

This is a still and unmoving 3D printed image of a Rooster celebrating the Chinese New Year in 2017. The design will stand upright on its own two legs for decorative purposes. Two versions (.stl's) have been provided, one basic and standard version and a smaller key fob version. The basic version is just the simple Rooster model measuring approximately 57.5mm x 82.5mm x 9mm. At this scale, the design's decorative details should be clean and clear when printed on a well-set-up machine with a good slicing app (refer to images). Scaling down will reduce the amount of visible detail in the print, while scaling up is no problem at all. The key fob version is approximately 30% smaller than the standard version, measuring 45mm x 55mm x 8mm, making it a practical size for use on a key ring and easily fitting in a pocket. However, this reduced size decreases the amount of visible detail in the print. You can scale up X/Y uniformly if you want a bigger Rooster. Print in your chosen color and scale up if required. Scaling down is not recommended. You can make your Rooster two colors by pausing the print at 1.0-1.5mm in and 1.0-1.5mm before the end. Just observe the print as it progresses, and the formation of details makes it easy to determine suitable times to change colors. Quick, easy, and fun little prints for yourself, a decoration, or a gift. Please refer to the print settings and images for additional information... and post images of your Rooster prints for others to see.
