Singing Witch Hat with Spider

3D Printed Singing Hat With Spider 3/27/2021 - Zip File Version 1 This is my first attempt at making a 3d printed Singing Hat with an attached spider that holds the typical 12mm RGB pixels used in various light shows. Description: It is composed of 43 separate pieces. Each piece is numbered. Most pieces are 6mm thick with a 2mm raised edge. I believe this will be plenty strong and use less material than my previous attempt using 10mm thickness through out. Its approximate size is 1570mm wide x 1260mm high (62in x 50in). It holds 255 pixels. I know it is a lot of pieces and may be complex to put together. I hope it is worth the effort! It was fun to make. All the STL files are included in the ZIP file. There is an assembly image that shows where the pieces attach to each other. Printer: Each piece is sized to fit on an Ender Pro printing bed (they fit in a 220x220 bed). Should be able to at least print several pieces at one time but this won't always be the case. I have tested printed pieces using PLA+ from GST3D. This stuff seems to print very nicely. To make the dove tailing work with a good fit, I do set the Horizontal Expansion to -0.21. I created several small "test pieces" so you could set up printer without wasting much material. These don't attach to the hat. XLights: I have not created a custom model for this as of yet. If you like doing that, I would be interested in seeing it! *** Changes *** 5/22/2021 - I have created a custom model for Xlights for this prop. It is in the zip file.
