β¨ Biblical accurate angel model β¨
Always wanted to create a model like this and after some testing there are now two versions. Would love to hear what you think of them!
β΄ No Glue Version (Collapsible) β΄
π€ Support free
π€ Print at 0.15 mm layer height or smaller, 15 % infill (gyroid) worked well for me
π€ Test prints all done at 100 % - largest ring has a diameter of 20 cm
π€ All rings rotate and collapse
π€ No guarantee sizing down will work - if you still want to try, consider using a smaller nozzle size as well
β΄ Glue Version β΄
π€ Support free
π€ Print at 0.15 mm layer height or smaller, 15 % infill (gyroid) worked well for me
π€ Test prints all done at 100 % - largest ring has a diameter of ~20 cm
πͺ How to glue them together
Each ring has 2 grooves to add the glue and the next smaller ring has 2 pins that go into these grooves. Use them for proper orientation. Gluing the rings together otherwise won't work due to the distance between the rings. I used "Kraftprotz Sekundenkleber 3D Druck" - Gorilla Glue and similar will likely work perfectly as well
If you want to get the exact orientation as in the pictures proceed as follows:
The Glue Version as a tree topper addition/mounting option available here!
The prints seen in the pictures were done using the Prusa MK4S and eSun in Gold.
The rings of the Glue and No Glue versions rotate a bit differently (as visible in the pictures)
Happy printing! π€
Note: I get an error message in PrusaSlicer 2.8.1 that the dimensions are defined in meters instead of millimeters. If the same happens to you just click βYesβ. I will try my best to fix this in updated versions.
