Pumpkin Ghost Halloween Bucket

The @OVERTURE3D pumpkin ghost has grown up and wants to join in on the Halloween fun!

Hollowed out and now sporting a lid and handle, it wants to help you bring home as many treats as you dare to Trick or Treat for 🎃

This is a pretty straightforward print! No supports are needed, except for under the clips at the ends of the handle. Once these are removed, the handle will clip into the receptacles added behind the “arms” of the container. The lid can go on in any orientation.

At 100% scale (STL files) the container has an internal capacity of ~2L. Scaling this down to 90% (3MF file) yields about 1.5L, and 80% about 1L.

The STL files are self-explanatory. All transitions between different colour regions have been left sharp, so PrusaSlicer smart fill can make short work of painting.

The 3MF file features a few personal optimisations that I used to print the one in the photos:

• All files packed together as tight as possible
• 90% scale (because I don't want my kids bringing home too many sweets)
• 10% infill (faster to print, lighter to carry)
• 20% infill modifiers under the eyes (to support them better)
• Orange colour modifier at the bottom (to speed up the bottom which would otherwise be white on the inside)

I used the following PLA filaments, PETG would be another great choice:

• Bambu Basic PLA - Orange
• Bambu Sparkle PLA - Onyx Black
• Polymaker PolyTerra PLA - Matte White
• Polymaker PolyLite PLA - Silk Green

Hollowed out the pumpkin, cut a lid, and added features to allow a carry handle
