As is, the ornament can be used as a gift box or to hide your candy stash in plain view!
The outer surface of this model has been remeshed to make it easy for you to do your own remixes!
Import the file into your favourite mesh editing software to sculpt the surface or add additional objects.
Meshmixer is a free software that is particularly suited for projects like this. Import the files into Meshmixer and select the hemisphere that you wish to remix. The “Sculpt” tab allows you to draw, write or sculpt the surface. The “Meshmixer” tab allows you to attach other meshes onto the surface of the ornament.
Be sure to watch that that changes you make to the outer surface do not affect the geometry of the inside threads, otherwise your printed model may not assemble properly.
This design uses a threaded insert to connect the two hemispheres allowing them to be printed flat on the build plate with no supports. This makes them easier to print and means that the entire outer surface can be textured.
