I agreed to feed my friend's fish for a week while she was away. The fish seemed kind of bored, so I made this stunt hoop for it. You can print either the single object, or as 3 separate objects to allow for multiple colors.
Simply print the base hoop in your desired color and leave it affixed to your heat bed. Load the color for the flames (red), zero your Z axis to the top the of base and then load and slice without skirt. You may need to adjust your start code and/or edit your gcode after slicing to persuade your printer not to rezero the Z axis at the start of the print. You can also leave the heat bed disabled. Print and then repeat for the flames detail (orange).
The extra cylinders at the top of the multi-color .stl files allow the software to auto-center each piece in the same spot. They can be discarded after printing.
