Vase Mode Christmas tree

This is a simple Christmas tree designed to be printed in vase mode. It should be printed without support and only a single spiral wall. 

It only took 25 min and 13g to print this using an 0.8mm nozzle, 0.4mm layer height and 0.8mm line width. 

Happy Halloween Articulating Spine

This print-in-place “Happy Halloween” spine is fun to print and feels really weird to hold and move. 
See here for video: https://youtu.be/1uJ-5xu7dJw 
The spine must be printed as oriented, with the spinous processes point up. Changing the orientation of the file will result in improper printing of the inner ball joint between adjacent vertebrae.
The transverse processes that stick out sideways do not need support. Therefore, you only need to support the base of the vertebral bodies and the top loop. 
You’ll have to plan your support well in order to adequately support the curved bottom surface of the vertebral body. A suggested technique using Cura is to raise the object of the build plate by 3mm, and then add tree supports underneath. Switch “Support distance priority” to “xy overrides z” and tighten up the “xy support distance” to 0.1mm. 
After printing there will be some small adhesions on the inside ball joint and in the facet joints. Just do some gentle spinal mobilization and they will release and move freely. Be sure to let your print fully cool first! If the plastic is still soft, the connector may break when you try to move it.

Spiral Christmas Balls

#Summary
These are a quick, fun, and are very lightweight. Each ball has the same cross-section and twist. The main differences are the size and number of arms.

* Large ball: 80mm diameter, weighs less than 17g, takes about 6 hours to print
* Small ball: 56mm diameter, weighs less than 9g, takes about 3 hours to print

These are part of my [Christmas Collection](https://www.thingiverse.com/dazus/collections/christmas-collection).

I designed these using Affinity Designer (for cross-sections) and Blender (everything else).

The arms need support at multiple points to keep from warping and breaking if you're using an FDM printer. To make this quick and easy, I provided a version of each ornament with built-in supports. I still had Cura add supports, but only where the balls touch the build plate. For details, se the print settings below.

#Print Settings
##Basics

* Layer Thickness: 0.15mm
* Walls: 0.4mm (1 line)
* Top/Bottom thickness: 0.45mm (3 layers)
* Build Plate Adhesion: Brim

If you have holes in your print (from the thin walls), I recommend increasing flow and/or print temperature. You might also decrease print speed and travel speed (I use 30mm/second and 80mm/second).

##Infill

Infill is optional. They should print OK without it, but I added some just at the bottom of each ball. I used Cura's Support Blocker and Per Model Setting's "Modify Settings for Overlaps" to add 20% infill (Lines pattern) for the first 51mm for the large ball and 37mm for the small ball.

##Supports

I recommend using the versions of the balls with built-in supports. You'll still need a little support for the first few layers (where the ball touches the build plate), but my supports make printing the arms of the ball easy. You can remove my supports with your bare hands (no tools) and they leave little or no marks on the print.

I recommend printing these with Cura-generated supports "touching buildplate" with a 60-65 degree overhang angle and a brim for the supports.

For support infill, use Concentric pattern, 10% density. Roof density of 75%, floor density of 50% works well and releases cleanly.

The small ball doesn't need any supports for the inside roof. I found it printed very cleanly. 

The large ball printed well enough for my taste without supports for the roof. It print was a little rough, but it only shows if you pick the ornament up and look up from the bottom of the ornament. When it's hanging on a tree, you'll never see that part of it. There's enough space between the arms of the ornament that you could get tools in to cut up and remove supports if you want to add them, but I don't think it's worth the effort.

Christmas Tree

This is an easy-to-print, modern Christmas tree. Looks really well as a winter decoration. It can be printed in vase mode as well as standard mode.

---

**Recommended print settings**

- vase mode: yes
- bottom solid layers: 7
- extrusion width: 1 mm

Printing it with 1 mm extrusion width makes it solid enough.

This model prints nicely with fuzzy skin feature on it. It adds additional strength and hardiness to the walls.

When printing in standard mode, seam position should be set to aligned.

The tip of the tree should be printed slowly to avoid unwanted deformations.
