Chinese Lantern Plant String Light Covers

I modeled these lantern plant pods to fit over standard string lights. The fit is tension based (gentle push and twist) and designed for an 8mm light diameter, so you will need to scale the model to fit your needs if your string lights are different.  Please keep in mind that larger scaling changes will affect the way the light shines through your print.

The tops are flat for ease of printing.  You should not need supports.

They are a fairly quick print and work well in groups- either all at once or one at a time.  

Recommended filament (PLA):
