Updates

While I've found my models slice well in Cura, they have mesh issues that impact other slicers. I'm working very hard to correct them. I've made some progress and uploaded new versions of the ornaments with and without supports. I think these will address many of the issues people have had, but I'm not certain. If you have difficulties with them, please let me know, be specific, and please be kind. I work very hard to create these and I'm working even harder to get them so they work well for everyone.

I've printed v2 and v3 of the ornament (mesh fixes & supports) using Cura and they printed ok. v2 had a little more faceted that the original, but I used less subdivision.

v3 has the same subdivision as the original, but was repaired a different way.

Summary

I wanted to create a spiral version of my Teardrop ornaments that was smaller. This is 87mm tall.

I've provided versions with and without supports. I recommend starting with the version with supports. With the recommended settings, the ornament prints in 3.5 hours and the final ornament is 8.5 grams, though it takes 22 grams worth of material to print the version with supports. It's well worth the filament for the supports. They make it easy to print, keeping the model from warping much during printing (preventing the arms from breaking) and yet you can remove them using your bare hands with almost no pressure and leave little or no marks on the ornament.
