My name is Daniel Bettencourt, owner of Kaizen 3D Prints, located in the Pacific Northwest. I am a full time massage therapist turning into a full time 3D textile designer. I currently print with 11 Bambu lab machines (A1, P1P and P1S), 1 Elegoo Neptune max 4 and a Peopoly Magneto X.

Kaizen 3D Prints is about pushing the boundaries of 3D printed fabrics and textiles. I work with cosplayers, fashion designers, and high-end brands to create works of art, both functional and fashionable. I love helping others' imagination come to life with the use of 3D design, patterning, and printing. Located out of our home, I live and breathe this passion for 3D fashion. Our only limit is our imagination!

I was inspired to create this using a recycled filament from Reflow Filament, based in the Netherlands. I also used a color changing white to purple PLA from Inland filament for the clouds and the border. You can color it however you'd like! Since I love using holographic build plates (found at https://kaizen3dprints.com/collections/p-flat-plates ) I printed two sides to glue together at the outer ring so I could have the holographic effect on both sides as it twirls around in front of my window.

There are two sizes, one for a 256x256 build plate, and another for a 180x180 build plate. There is a 3MF file with all of my print settings, or you can download the individual STL and try at it with your own settings. This is printed with 5 layers, at 1.2mm tall. I printed it at .24mm layer height with a .4mm nozzle. There is a pause command added at layer 4 where you will add your fabric and magnets, then resume the print. You can decrease the thickness to 3 layers, .72mm just change the pause to layer 2 instead of layer 4.

You can use whatever mesh you'd like, as long as it's thickness doesn't exceed your layer height. I used Illusion mesh for this print. You can find fabric sample packs on my website as well - https://kaizen3dprints.com/products/fabric-sample-pack I print at 35mm/s on the first layer using the PFLAT sheets, and 50mm/s on the other layers. When printing with fabric, and lots of small parts, I prefer taking the time instead of bumping up the print speed and having a potential failure. I've attached a printing on fabric guide that has some links and more info.
