The file 'Sunflower “World’s Best Mom/Dad” + Happy Birthday (English And Swedish) 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 3.3MB.
My mom loves sunflowers. I wanted to get her sunflowers for her birthday, but I couldn't find a flower store that could deliver sunflowers to her. Because she is literally at the opposite side of the planet (I am in New Zealand, she is in Sweden), I decided to CAD and email her a sunflower that she could print out on her 3D printer instead. I sliced it for her and sent her the gcode, so she wouldn't know what it was until it started printing. :-)
I sent my mom the Swedish version, but because most of Thingiverse users aren't Swedish speaking, I created an English version as well. In addition to that, I made two more versions that simply say "World's Best Mom!" and "World's Best Dad!". Those will work for any occasion. :-)
Print the design with a filament change at approximately 1.6 mm to get the text to show through. With a layer height of 0.2 mm, I added a filament change at layer 8 in Ultimaker Cura. Print the leaves separately and click them together.
Happy printing!
