My wife felt nostalgic with the re-release of the McDonald's Happy Pails, so I made smaller versions. You can use them to hold stuff (candy) throughout the house, or you can chuck a tea light in them as decorations.

The lids are all interchangeable, so if you want to put Frankenstein's Monster's hair on a pumpkin, or a witch hat on Frankenstein's Monster, knock yourself out!

These should be printed without supports. 10mm is the longest bridge.

I would not recommend scaling these down, as they're only 1mm at the thinnest wall (face deboss). They should scale up without issues.

Tea lights seem to work better with light-colored opaque filaments. If you use translucent filaments, a strip of white paper inside can help diffuse the light.

I'm particularly happy with my Frankie design, with 3D stitches and bolts :)

Please ignore the layer shift in the pics; I'm working through some y-axis issues…
