Singing Tree with Bow

thingiverse

This is a remix of the original Singing Tree (V2). Someone asked for a bow on top so I added this. The difference is subtle. The obvious changes are the bow and parts 8 and 9. The actual tree has the same number of holes but due to changes in the pattern the holes follow, the holes may not be exactly the same in the other tree parts. However, I think it is close enough where you could replace parts 8 and 9 in the previous version of the tree without having to reprint the entire prop. The files are the STLs to make the tree shown in the Assembly picture. The tree is about 1171mm tall and 875mm wide (46" tall and 35" wide). All the parts will (should) fit on an Ender 5 pro bed. The tree (not including the ornaments) holds 217 pixels. If you include the ornaments, as shown, there are 246. The ornaments are optional and are intended to be "hung" with monofilament. There are 3mm holes in the ornaments and on parts: 2, 4, 8, 9, 14, 17, 19 and 20 to hang the ornaments. There are a total of 32 pieces without ornaments. The prop has places to hang 8 ornaments, for a total of 40 pieces if desired. There are two test pieces included to set up your printer. Printer: I have been printing in PLA+. I'll have to see if it holds up outdoors! I use CURA (v4.80) as my slicer. I set the "Horizontal Expansion" setting to -0.21mm. This allows for a snug fit for the joints. I will turn on "Supports" for the following parts: Left Eye, Right Eye, Tree 8 and Tree 9. They have the "female" end of a "hidden" joint on the back side that is 3mm thick. Assembly: Please use the two Assembly pictures to see how to put it together. "Assembly" is just a picture of the final prop. "Assembly 1" labels each part. I have created custom XModel files for this tree. 1. Tree with ornaments and bow 2. Tree with bow but no ornaments Thank you for looking at or even attempting to print this. I would be interested in any feedback.
