Christmas Ball

<div><p>Yet another hollow snowman to set on top of a LED pad. Mine features a complete support free print and 70mm space at the base for 65-70mm LED-PADs like these:</p>
<p><a target="blanc" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.de/HOVNEE-Wasserdichte-Dekorationen-unterwasserlicht-fernbedienung/dp/B07WTSZCG8/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&amp;keywords=HOVNEE&amp;qid=1604343200&amp;sr=8-9&amp;tag=tv-auto-20">remote controlled LED Pads ~70mm</a>.<br>
(you can probably get them cheaper at Ali Express, it is just one many possible lighting options).</p>
<p>Together it looks like this:</p>
<p><a target="blanc" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iCZHZ0K1DA">Snowman on LED-PAD</a></p>
<p>If you want to use a smaller light (e.g. 34mm LED Tealight), you can scale the snowman in your slicer to your needs. I&apos;d recommend to scale all axis the same amount (locked scaling). On 100% Sice it is about 15cm high, 10cm wide and 8cm deep. At the Base it needs 75mm space to stand on.</p>
<p>The most usable filament for this is probably transparent (uncolored) PLA or PETG. I printed it in 0.2mm resolution. I used a wallcount of only 1 to get thin walls - so that with the transparent PLA the light would get through really good - be aware though, that this makes the snowman somewhat delicate. It is sturdy enough for a visual ornament, but you can crush it easily with one hand if you grip it hard. It&apos;s more to look at than to play with.</p>
<p>More walls will make it more sturdy, but also more opaque.</p></div>

<p>Step 2: The snowman is hollow with a hole at the bottom. Just set it on top of a LED pad or a LED tealight (not a real tealight though...) /// </p>

YAS! Yet another Snowman

Yet another hollow snowman to set on top of a LED pad. Mine features a complete support free print and 70mm space at the base for 65-70mm LED-PADs like these:

<p><a target="blanc" href="https://www.amazon.de/HOVNEE-Wasserdichte-Dekorationen-unterwasserlicht-fernbedienung/dp/B07WTSZCG8/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=HOVNEE&qid=1604343200&sr=8-9
">remote controlled LED Pads ~70mm</a>.<br/>
(you can probably get them cheaper at Ali Express, it is just one many possible lighting options).</p>

Together it looks like this:
<p><a target="blanc" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iCZHZ0K1DA">Snowman on LED-PAD</a></p>

If you want to use a smaller light (e.g. 34mm LED Tealight), you can scale the snowman in your slicer to your needs. I'd recommend to scale all axis the same amount (locked scaling). On 100% Sice it is about 15cm high, 10cm wide and 8cm deep. At the Base it needs 75mm space to stand on.

The most usable filament for this is probably transparent (uncolored) PLA or PETG. I printed it in 0.2mm resolution. I used a wallcount of only 1 to get thin walls - so that with the transparent PLA the light would get through really good - be aware though, that this makes the snowman somewhat delicate. It is sturdy enough for a visual ornament, but you can crush it easily with one hand if you grip it hard. It's more to look at than to play with.

More walls will make it more sturdy, but also more opaque.

Christmas Balls Collection for LED strips

I designed a collection of 10 different types of  balls to be printed with transparent/translucent material and inserted in led strips.

Perfect for Christmas and for a fancy effect.

Designed for wired led strips, the ones with copper wires and little leds enclosed in a drop of glue. The holes in the balls are perfectly fitted for a "standard" strip, to adapt to larger versions just upscale the design in cura. Pay attention, the hole diameter is also a function of extrusion width in the final print

To lock the balls in place along the led strip you can use hot glue, you can

- bend the wire,
- melt the plastic and seal the ball with a lighter after the insertion,
- use some adhesive tape

The balls must be printed in vase mode (spiralized outer contour) WITHOUT THE BOTTOM (selecting 0 layers in TOP/BOT options)

Test you filament using 0.2mm as layer height and 0.4mm as extrusion width.

ENJOY and post your makes!
