Description
Here is my 2019 Christmas Ornament. I design one each year that I can customize with each family members name (look at my previous posts for examples). I have made the main body blank, and have added the test and year as slicer modifiers so you can easily modify it for your needs even if you don't have CAD. Please note I used a stencil font called Stencil Gothic which can be found free online. That way the letters don't have floating sections (like the centers of O's, A's, etc.
This year I designed a two part print in place tree ornament where the center of the tree prints with an integrated swivel axis. Once printed pop off the bed and the center can revolve inside the outer tree profile. I print the center of the tree with zero top and bottom layers and a honeycomb infill. This makes the names which are cut out as a stencil pattern appear to be floating in the honeycomb.
I have included a Step file for you to import if you would like to modify it. Feel free to modify, reshare, customize to your hearts content.
