Description

What do you need?
-650 grams of filament (PETG recommended)
-superglue or epoxy resin (I used this glue.)
-a hair dryer
-pole moss (I bought my moss here.)
-possibly color
-and of course 3d printer (I used this one ;-) )

I use PETG filament instead of PLA because I wanted to prevent the thin branches from deforming.
The branches are printed flat on the print bed and then heated with a hair dryer and bent over a glass. I printed the branches with 10 outlines so that they are solid and do not collapse when heated. All the branches have the same connector so that you can freely choose the position of your branches.

I printed all parts with an original prusa mk3s.
Tree trunk 2 and 5 require minimal support. In the mf3 files is a support enforcer at these points.
I printed the tree trunk 4 and 6 with a brim just to be on the safe. But this may not be necessary. Also saved in the mf3 files

Because the moss is alive, you have to spray it regularly with water and put it in the shade.
