My 3D printers have been in full bloom the last couple of weeks with these pixel flower fidgets 🌷 When they're not in use, I designed a stem ‘stand’ and three different styles of vases to hold them as a cute display:)

4/10/2025 Update: It was just brought to my attention that I left the support settings on both the Pixel Flower (large) and Pixel Flower (small) causing them to 'fuse' together and not fidget properly. To fix this you can remove the supports on both of these, or, I also attached an updated 3mf file with these changes made:)

3D Printing Instructions: PLA basic filament preferred Layer Height 0.2mm Infill 15% for pixel flowers and stem, & 30-50% for vases (to make them more weighted) Supports needed under the stalk of the stems

Basic PLA is the best for this print. Like my other recent pixel style fidgets, I don’t recommend PLA Silk or PLA Matte filaments for this print. It is very detailed (on the inside) and the tolerances are small. I printed several of these in these three types of filaments and Basic PLA always printed the best and had smoother “movement” when done.

If you have any difficulty printing these pixel flowers I recommend: Using a glue stick on the print bed Slowing the print down

For the vases, I found I like to have my infill between 30-50% to make them more sturdy when the flower is placed on the stem ‘stand’ 💪

I have also included a 3mf file with the following print profile: Print Plate #1(pixel flower_large): 4 colors Print Plate #2 (Stem_large): 1 color, supports under stalk of the stem Print Plate #3 (vase #1): 1 color, infill 30-50% (to make it more weighted) Print Plate #4 (pixel flower_small): 4 colors Print Plate #5 (stem_small): 1 color, supports under stalk of the stem Print Plate #6 (vase #2): 1 color, infill 30-50% (to make it more weighted) Print Plate #7 (vase #3): 1 color, infill 30-50% (to make it more weighted)

Have fun printing! 😊 Erin
