These are VERY easy to make, and are FAST to print. Similar decor is sold at Walmart for $30 per bulb. Yuck! This one comes in 3 flavors:

• JUMBO (H2 Series Printers)
• MEGA (P1 Series Printers)
• I-THINK-I-CAN (A1 Mini)  [Incoming]

 

But wait, how did you do multi-color vase mode? That's not possible in Bambu Studio!

 

You are correct!  But… we can trick it. 🙊

INSTRUCTIONS:

 

STEP 1:  Open the profile. You'll note the pause sequence after about 80% of the threaded base is complete.

 

 

During the print job, once it pauses at this location, we're going to… snip the line. 😱

 

 

 

Once the line has been snipped, lift that spool completely out:

 

 

Then, hit resume:

 

 

Now, it will print what is left in the tubes. Once it runs out, it will get mad at you for running out of filament:

 

 

Place your light bulb color into the slot where the thread color filament was, and hit resume:

 

 

 

Good luck! Attach pics to your comments and lets see your color patterns!

 

 

* Snow has not fallen where I live due to the moisture being a cheapskate; Gemini has shown us what it would look like with a nice snowy environment. The original lights are unchanged.

 

**EDIT: One last thing: The top doesn't seal on account of the bulb not coming to a complete point. My wife tells me this was an artistic choice (and definitely not a lack of foresight… hehe) Just keep that expectation in mind. It isn't noticeable as a decoration outside.
