Santa Hat - Christmas decoration that fits onto the top of a bottle of Bubbly!

myminifactory

Great holiday decoration idea: this festive Santa Hat has been crafted specifically to fit snugly atop a bottle of champagne or wine, adding a touch of cheer during the most wonderful time of the year. Designed to be placed on before opening the bottle and used as a cover afterwards (though not intended for sealing purposes), it makes for a fantastic way to dress up any gathering. The interior design cleverly angles the hat slightly back when placed on an open bottle, ensuring stability. Not only can this decorative piece be used as a unique centerpiece, but it's also incredibly easy to print. With just a slight modification to the raft base (1mm adjustment), you can change the colors from white to red at 16mm (approximately 39%) and then back to white again at 73mm (around 92%), all on a Replicator 2 printer. At standard size, the hole in the base measures approximately 32.5mm in diameter, providing a loose fit for any wine bottle and a snug fit for champagne bottles still wrapped in wire and foil. This design can easily be resized to accommodate other types of bottles, such as beer bottles. A second STL file (alt_support) has been included, featuring more solid support, which is necessary for some slicing apps that struggle with the original file's fine supports. However, this thicker support will result in a slightly longer print time and increased filament usage. If you enjoy this design, be sure to check out my other fun and practical creations! Don't forget to share photos of your printed masterpieces in action – it's always exciting to see how others use these designs.
