Slimmer String "Climbing" Christmas Tree

Slimmer String "Climbing" Christmas Tree is based on this thing: [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1858628](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1858628). My mother found that thing and wanted me to print a couple for my nieces, but I had other plans. I liked it, but decided to get creative. I made several changes to give it a unique twist: * I slimmed down the tree to make it more compact. * Instead of using a cover on one end, I split the tree in half. * The star topper got a 3D makeover. * I flipped the orientation of the climbing mechanisms' spool. * I enclosed the spool in a small case for easier management and less tangles. * I increased some tolerances for added stability. * I also added bearings to make it run smoother - an optional upgrade. To bring this creation to life, you'll need embroidery floss. You can take it up a notch by using a couple of bearings to smooth out the climbing mechanism. If you're feeling adventurous, use 4x8x3mm flanged bearings, and don't forget to download the separate STL files for the spool case and spool wheels. Most instructions remain the same, so I just copied them from the original thing and tweaked them as needed.
