A German pyramid is a wooden decoration that is traditionally used for German Christmas celebrations and now you can print your own! It's a really fascinating, eye-catching, interactive piece of holiday decor that you're sure to enjoy.
Non-Printed Parts:
- 4x LED Flame Tea Light Candle (KC008)
- Turntable Motor (LA001)
Printed Parts: Print one of each part, except for…
- 12x Blades
- 2x Arches
Printing Tips Use supports where the printer recommends them, organic will probably work best. I don't recommend supports on the spiral trees though since it will be difficult to remove them. I also recommend printing with 0.2mm layer height.
Also, slow down your print speed when printing the leaves and other small figurines.
Assembly Tips The assembly is pretty simple since most parts press-fit together. The one area I recommend using some glue is to connect the motor axle to the bottom of the disk. Otherwise, it's designed so the motor is replaceable, so just be sure not to glue the candle mount to the arch base.
The leaves print flat and you can use them that way, or, to achieve the look of my example, you can gently fold them. I recommend using a heat gun or hair dryer to gently warm them before attempting to bend the print, but be careful and don't melt them instead.
