Slide-Together Christmas Tree

thingiverse

If I'm being completely honest, I whipped up this model in about 30 minutes while sitting in an engineering class, feeling rather unenthusiastic. I was looking for a simple Christmas tree to add some much-needed flair to my dorm room, which had been looking pretty bare until then. The star was actually an afterthought that I added later on, and it's a bit more intricate, but if you're searching for something super easy to print in bulk, the tree itself looks quite impressive. The parts are designed with a precise tolerance so they don't require any sanding or fancy techniques to assemble. In fact, they fit together so snugly that you won't need any glue at all! If some pieces don't click into place right away, just give them a bit of extra effort and they should slide together smoothly.
