Summary

This tree decoration has captive print-in-place ornaments. Once printed they twist loose and rotate freely within the boughs of the tree.

This design is particularly suited to printing with multicolour filament as rotating the ornaments allows for visualization of the different filament colours.

This model features the tricolour “Silk Red & Green & Blue” filament by Eryone.

This is an advanced print requiring a well calibrated machine and quality filament. Good layer adhesion is important.

Print the tree upside-down with the top portion fully supported.

Once printed, allow the print to cool. Wiggle each ornament back and forth until it breaks from the small internal supports. Twist it a few times until it turns smoothly.

If an ornament does break off while twisting it loose, you can just glue it back in place.
