Description
The Cowboy Hat was designed to be a solution to prints that failed close to their finish. The tiny hats came from when I was printing some Zou 3d elephants and they failed close to the top. I was printing the flexi elephants to sell at a craft fair so I looked for a simple hat to cover the tops of them that also had commercial rights and couldn't find any, so I made one. It's really basic but it works for what I needed and I hope this helps others who are in the same boat as me. You can use this design for commercial use.
I printed it in multicolor because it only needs to switch colors a few times and I have a A1 with AMS lite, however if you have a single color printer, you can just make them single color.
This file does not need supports.
Not sure what size hat you need? Measure the widest part of your print that failed (the top part), and scale the hat accordingly! Single colors print pretty fast so you can also test one before printing a bunch of them.
***Snowman file not included. That is RunStopRestores design, I just wanted to share how I repaired the failed print with the top hat.
Boost MeI provide all my hats with free commercial use. If you find that helpful and want to support me, I appreciate any boosts. I am saving up points to get another printer so I can test more stuff!License:
