3D model of party glasses for celebrating the arrival of the new year 2026.
Printing:
Print takes about 1h12min on CORE One and I recommend to use color-change during print, e.g. first 7 layers with one color and rest with black color. But of course you can go without color-change as well.
- Use PLA to bend the front part well in hot water.
- Use brim for the temples.
- Custom supports are ready for the revolute joint of the temples and work well for 0,2mm layerheight.
Post processing:
Also see images here https://www.printables.com/model/342945-party-glasses-2023.
- Remove temple brims and clean the edges.
- Bend the front frame a bit using hot water (or heat gun) and coffee saucer. Hot tap water was sufficient in my case.
- Remove small support block from the temples (inside joint).
- Try to insert piece of filament into the holes. The holes may probably need to be enlarged.
- Slide the temples onto the frame and insert the filament.
- Trim the end of the filament.
- Enjoy the party ;)
