This ice-cream prints in place and the cone slides up and down. No supports needed.
This print is customizable and allows you to select the style of the eyes and mouth on the figure, and whether to add a keyring hole.
Click on “Customize” to try out all the possible combinations right in your browser!
As a bonus, there are toggles to hide the ice cream shell and see how the collapsible mechanism works inside; and another toggle to see the model with the cone already expanded (don't press download to print on this view).
Notes:
Sometimes, right after printing, the middle segment of the cone can bit a bit stuck. Applying a bit of sideways force will easily snap the few contact points from the other cones and the mechanism will start working.
Printed this with 0.12mm height in PLA. Any infill will do. I found it better to set the seam position to “Back”.
If you want to print this to a keychain that doesn't have a clip on, I've also included a profile which prints the model and pauses at the moment you need to add the keyring while the top of the hole isn't closed, press resume and it will close the hole and finish the print in the next 30s.
I've also included colors in the parametric model maker in case you want to try that. I don't have an AMS so I couldn't test that out.
