✨ Key Features
- Print-in-Place Illusion: The entire chain section prints as one single, rigid piece—no complex assembly, gluing, or hidden wires required.
- Easy 2-Part Design: The model consists of the main standing chain and a separate candle holder cup that rests perfectly on top.
- Broad Appeal: A clean, mesmerizing aesthetic that works great for modern decor, fantasy lovers, cozy lighting setups, or party decorations.
- Bambu Lab Maker's Supply Ready: Perfectly sized to fit standard battery-operated LED tea lights, including the ones easily found in the MakerWorld/Bambu Lab Supplies for Makers store.
🖨️ Printing Instructions & Tips
This model is designed to be a beautiful decorative piece. While it stands securely on its own, the chain links are thin, so it is meant for display rather than heavy handling.
- Supports: Supports are required for the chain links.
- Pro-Tip for Easy Removal: Use Normal Snug Supports and set 3 interference layers on both the top and bottom support interfaces. This will make removing the supports from the inner links a breeze!
- Layer Height & Infill: General/standard print settings work perfectly fine for this model.
- Material: PLA, PETG, or ABS all work wonderfully. Matte filaments or metallic silks look especially great for simulating real iron or stone chains!
⚠️ Important Safety Note
USE LED / FLAMELESS CANDLES ONLY! This model is designed strictly for battery-operated LED tea lights. Do not use real flame candles, as the heat will melt the plastic and create a fire hazard.
